TSNet error 6

[J. Landman Gay]

I'll have to find out the answers and do a little more testing. I didn't 
have any trouble at all today at a coffee shop near me but one of the 
testers has found a very reliable bad network so I can ask him to try the 
things you've mentioned.

We were joking today that we have good news - - everything fails really 
well now.
