That sounds very plausible. Thanks for the suggestion, Vineet. > I'm guessing the testing update wasn't the only thing you changed today > ... what did you do to the network? ;-) Heh heh. While I can't remember the exact chronology (notes would have been nice), there *was* a firmware upgrade of my wireless/router/firewall (Dilink DI-713p) involved. Strangely enough, the upgrade was "successful" but the version didn't change, which is suspect. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the option on this box to fix the MTU. There might be one other angle, which I'm going to test tonight. I tried these tests from my other Internet hosts and they *succeeded.* I'm going to work with the provider of my Internet host (the CVS client) tonight to see if it's a firewall issue on her side. -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
