Site was offline for a bit, did you get a chance to install Ubuntu?

No, I've been remote working today pulling that infected machine out of service, and solving others issues since i was there.

Not often, but my LAN connection goes from my dock to a switch through Powerline adapters to my other main 8-port switch and then to the router. If something fails at any number of points along that way, it's handy to have the failover.

Congrats on intentionally disabling a setting that is designed to make your system work better.
