This indicates that your ruleset does not have an ACCEPT rule for "your
connection".
I suggest you leave the default policy at ACCEPT, add a LOG rule at the end of
the chain (presumably INPUT, if you're talking about your connection to the
firewall itself), and then see what packets get LOGged as a result of
continuing to use your connection.
Whatever gets LOGged will tell you what you need to add a rule to ACCEPT.
