My SB3 often has trouble in reconnecting to SC (7.2) when cold booted.
It seems to boot successfully but fails at the last step. I manually
went through all the network config steps to verify that it was just
the SC connect that was the issue.

However from the SC PC itself I was surprised to find that I couldn't
ping the SB3 on the address that it said it had obtained. I dug a
little deeper and "arp -a" showed that the ip address was indeed mapped
to the SB3's MAC address but ping still didn't work. I moved the SB3
next to the wireless router with no change.
Finally I tried rebooted the wireless router (Linksys WRT54GX-v2
firmware 2.00.20) even though other wireless devices were working, and
suddenly the SB3 connected to SC just fine. It is also pingable.

Any ideas what went wrong? I really don't think that it's just the
router that's at fault here.
