It's late and I should be clearer.

set your default route to 68.54.21.1 and see if you don't get juice.

See anything wrong with this?

I can connect from a host on my LAN, via the above router, to a host on
the Internet.  I can connect from a host on my LAN to the httpd on the
router.  I can connect from one host to another on the LAN.  What I
*cannot* do is connect from the router, to any host on any network.  I
even went as far as:

# iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -F INPUT
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -F OUTPUT

tcpdump still shows *nothing* from any attempted outbound connections.
