Interesting, what is _really_ going on with the website?
I was having connectivity issues to www.freebsd.org from linux, netbsd
and freebsd machines. After adjusting the appropriate value for linux,
netbsd and freebsd the issues seem to clear.
Under linux adjust:
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling
Under FreeBSD/NetBSD adjust:
net.inet.tcp.rfc1323
