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.
