Different cable, different NIC, same PC same problem. Moved BBBS over to
another Linux PC, no problem. Can connect in and out just fine. When time
permit and health permits I will continue to investigate the actual cause of
the connection problem on that Linux PC. Right now i am trying to get over a
bad case of pneumonia.
