Gentlemen, Thank you! That cleared things up perfectly. ppp0 had the MTU set for 1492; however, none of the other interfaces did (including eth1 which I failed to mention was actually the path to ppp0). You are both gentlemen and scholars. Thanks again!

For example, penny-arcade.com, americanexpress.com SSL logins, and a few others.
