Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.20

After recent change of my router to Linksys WRT54GS I encountered
problem described here
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=383390). Symptoms are as
follows: some web pages load without problem, but some are not
available. If I ping those servers everything is ok, but traceroute is
not able to trace the path to reach them. For example

sollution to this was to add to
/etc/sysctl.conf

the following two lines

net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 16384 131072
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 174760

Now everything works fine.

There should be a solution implemented ASAP to make everything work
straight of of the box. As far as it is not solved with Linksys firmware
update .
