Can not reach some web sites

[fedora]

I had exactly this problem also: in general, all wikipedia pages were 
not accessible from here.
I assumed, like Ed says, that IPV6 is the culprit.
what I then did: set MTU to 1450, You may only set IPV6_MTU to 1450. 
This may work as well.
And from then on, all wikipedia was accessible.
