I wouldn't use mozilla as a test tool. First make sure the iterface is
there with ifconfig and ifconfig -a. Check also the assigned IPs. Next
have a look at the routing table with route -n (the -n is good, as you
have no DNS lookup). If all looks good start pinging IPs.
If something does not work, install ethereal and use something like
tethereal -i any not host 127.0.0.1 (or simply ethereal&)
and watch the trafic.

This looks harmless, use lspci to see which devices share
IRQs. Probably your internal modem and the NIC.

I hope the above helps.
