Quick way to test if it is firewalling would be

Unplug from main network

test (so you know there are no other dependancies)

	/sbin/service iptables stop

test

	/sbin/service iptables start

Reconnect.

The firewall tools also let you trust specific interfaces which can be
useful when you've got a trusted network on one ethernet port.
