[Elecraft] K3/0 to K3 RemoteRig issue: NEVER MIND

[bwruble at gmail.com]

No, I can ping the U-Verse router. I cannot ping my distant router, where my remotely controlled station is, from within the U-Verse network.  I can ping it from outside the U-Verse network. Very weird.

I can tune, and obviously the distant K3 is tuning, as I can hear the signals change.  I can change bands, change modes, go in and out of XMIT.  The front panel of the K3/0 never shows a change, just sits there.
>>> 
>>> One possible clue:  I had an AT&T internet tech in today to give me a static ip (external ip) to support my surveillance system.  That has not affected any internet functions --- I have email, browser, and comms with the K3.  I just don't have feedback from the K3.  It seems to me that if I have good internet, then the K3/0 and RemoteRig shouldn't care about the changes, but it is suspiciously coincidental.  ........
