What in the world does that mean?

Hmm.  That fixes it.  So, based on the fact that everything else functions 
perfectly through the lanplex 2500, I'm wondering if this might be a 
configuration problem with the lanplex?  Can anyone answer that?  I'm 
trying to look through the documentation now, but I have no clue what I'm 
looking for.
 
A restore to factory default might do it...
