SUMMARY: DSL gateway problem



Everything is working again!

Thanks to D. Stimits, stimits@idcomm.com, who analyzed my data and
basically said: "Right now I'd be suspicious of cables and switches."

I switched a few cables around and back and then replaced the DSL mode
with the original that I had swapped out this morning and everything
began to work.  Not totally conclusive but I wanted everyone out there
to know that my problem is solved (for now).
