Hi Perry,

Thanks for that incredible interpretation of tcpdump!

That was the dump result for the browser over the ppp link method. The
browser over the ethernet gets pages from the same server just fine.

Maybe I should experiment with smaller mtu and mru sizes on the ppp link
along with the long packet pings.
Thanks so much for your help!
