Sean, thanks. As your next post surmised, I'd not done the ping because I didn't know how under DCHP. Please excuse my ignorance.

I did as you advised, and here are the full results:

pinging does work both ways. From bh6 to ton-desk, I get 30/10/10/10 MS. The other way, it's 100/30/160/30. The time difference is kind of interesting...

TIA,

Dave
