Try disabling the iptables temporarily.  I had that problem on Knology.
Once disabled, it worked.  I will figure out why later when I have
something worth protecting.  I am afraid if someone wants to steal Linux
they would be better to download the ISOs.

Shibu, is your ethernet interface set to DHCP? I run on Comcast with a
Motorola cable modem and that is all I had to do.
