This fits the port 443 above as this is a secure socket connection. This seems to fail while you are able to make regular HTTP connections (which use port 80). > Here's another(closer to home) example: > > An error occured while loading > http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-announce: > > Timeout on server > Connection was to mail.kde.org at port 443 Same here. The requested URL is a https:// one (there's a redirect): https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-announce Three things come to mind: - broken proxy setting for SSL connections (Are you using a proxy? If you do switch it off for a moment to check whether it's the culprit. You can do that in konqi's proxy settings) - a firewall that blocks port 443 but lets port 80 pass through (Are you using one? If you do switch it off for a moment to check whether it's the culprit.) - broken SSL (probably not...) I don't see a direct connection to your switch from dial-up to DSL for any of these but maybe you changed something in you setup...
