Hello There,   
      
   >>>> At that point (21:31 on 10/12/2018) I could not make any outbound network   
   >>>>connection. The problem did not look to be limited to BBBS as other outboun   
   >>>> connections such as web browsing were also not possible. But... Inbound   
   >>>> connections WERE still possible.   
      
   Wanted to make an update. It seems (Based on online research) that I am not   
   alone in the phenomenon of not being able to connect. I have become aware that   
   others running have had the same problem. Although it doesn't actually look to   
   be Linux related. In the cases that I have researched when the person having   
   the issue changed hardware the problem disappeared. With some it was as simple   
   as changing to a USB based network interface as simply changing the PCI based   
   NIC did not solve the problem. With me it was solved by changing the   
   motherboard that was being used.
