Yes, 69.12.176.95 is the broadcast address for my home network. I don't
have a good idea what would happen if one attempted to use the broadcast
address for the IP of a machine, but I imagine it might have problems
like dropped connections. Ok, that might be half the mystery.  The other
half is how/why did Network Manager set the IP on eth0 to the broadcast
address instead of 69.12.176.91 (which is static)? I'm paying close
attention now to what the IP on eth0 gets set to when I enable "eth0
Home" under Network Manager. So far this problem has not repeated.

Thanks,
Greg
