Jed,

Alas, that did not work either.
In fact I tried yesterday the opposite way around, starting BobExe from the 
other computer, that has only one wifi, to avoid confusion. That gave me of 
course the adress 192.168.1.54:8080. Then I tried to contact from the 
computer, that has confusing wifi, but I never got a connection anyway.
I did use Ifconfig also earlier on several times, thinking that would find 
a solution...;-)

I do not know wether this could have anything to do with the problems. It 
seems a lot of Linux Mint users are having trouble with network after 19.
Curious it is that:
I have several old thinkpads, paired two and two for compatible parts 
(thinking ahead for repair). Now 3 of them have the same wifi as the one 
giving trouble now...only no trouble they run fine enough. It is really not 
easy this network thing.
