   Hello Deon!   
      
   18 Sep 18 05:55, you wrote to me:

   Check your TCP/IP flags entry in mbsetup 1.14.3.  By default, MBSE will only    
   enable protocols that are listed there.   
      
   Mine is set to:   
      
   IBN,IFC,ITN:60177,XX,CM

   MBSE will always use BinkP if both options are available, as BinkP is more    
   efficient.  To override, you can override the flags for the node in question.
