I've just done the same thing for Squid on our Telstra link, and it works
fine. I put in the following line:

cache_peer melbourne.cache.telstra.net parent 3128 3130

Local access is fine, with both transparent proxying and properly
configured proxying.

Do you have any always_direct or similar directives in your squid
configuration file that might be interfering?
