Public bug reported:

I am running Dapper 6.06 LTS on a Dell Inspiron 630m with an Intel
PRO/Wireless 2200BG adapter.  Using my wireless connection, I am unable
to use any high port numbers above 999.  For instance, when trying to
use Firefox to manage a server using the Webmin tool, I cannot access
http://www.someservername.com:10000

I cannot surf to a web server using http://www.someservername.com:8080

I tried using

telnet www.someservername.com 8080

or

telnet www.someservername.com 10000

and get no connection.

Yet, when running these same commands or using Firefox to access the
above websites, I can successfully connect in all instances when using
the wired connection on the same computer.

I tested this with an Apache web server and kept changing the Apache
listening port.  Any port I configured below 1000, I was successfully
able to connect to.  Any port above 1000, I was not.

This problem is easily repeatable and consistent.
