Well, the following didn't work as I thought it was working.. 

Later, Google was able to connect.. more coffee was obviously needed:

> !tcpip 66.249.65/$
> !binkp 66.249.65/$


But THIS works (so far so good ):

[bbbsd]
!FTP 66.249.65.83/10
!HTTP 66.249.65.83/10
!raw 66.249.65.83/10
!TCPIP 66.249.65.83/10

Don't know where my brain was last night 

Take care,
Janis
