Ding, Ding, Ding,,, "that was the weakest link".......... Yes, going back to basics... it was the cable from my main box to the router.... It was an old cable that I had previously used from my laptop to my main box, so it was a crossover cable and not a straight one.. I just replaced it, and am now in Ping City... Thank you Leonard for your help, and reminder about going back to basics ... so to speak.. and to Devon for his thoughts. -- Best regards, Gary Today's thought: I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
