I started NetBSD, and shutoff IPF. Pinging mail.google.com and gsuite.google.com both got immediate results. If I left IPF down, and start FireFox, and goto mail.google.com, I get the "Critical Security Alert" popup, and the mouse gets frozen. I need to press the button, and reboot.
How much of this prob is IPF and how much is Google?
