    I guess I had a gremlin infecting my system for a while.  It is now working just fine, and I have no idea why.  Nothing changed.

     

    FIRST let me acknowledge Netgear's AWESOME technical support.  From reading my forum post, tech support reached out, obtained my contact information and my odd availability schedule.  They worked around my time and called me at my home to help figure this out.  One of the trouble shooting requests was to check the router internet light to see if it indicated connectivity.  When I reconnected the ethernet wires and re-enabled everything to report my findings, suddely it is worked as it should.

     

    I am not sure why.  I changed nothing.  Not even the ethernet cables were changed.  So, all is well even though I do not know why.

     

    KUDOS goes to Netgear's tech support department.  They went WAY beyond in an effort to help me.
