For a while it looked like a bad cable as I was able to connect on a
different one from the same router. The connection lasted long enough to
d/l an update. Then I closed the connection. Today none of the cables
from the router allow a connection. The nm-applet swears I'm connected
but trying to ping the router gives "operation not permitted". 

Wireless continues to work. I *think* that removes the router from 
suspicion. If I'm wrong please correct me.
