I haven't received the replacement board yet but was warned that it might be a refurbished product. That doesn't bother me but I sure hope that they at least don't return the same package I sent them. I guess that the luck of the draw will get a person a faulty piece of equipment now and then...
Just to provide a conclusion to this thread I can say that the problem turned out to be a bad out of the box motherboard. I have used a lot of Asus boards and never had a bad one until now. I hope I never have another because the RMA process is a PITA and unnecessarily slow to resolve. I may...

I am dealing with a small camera system in a single building location. The equipment is all of good quality with the centerpiece being a Honeywell HRG8 DVR. Cable is supplied by Cox Cable to a top brand modem. Here is where I get lost, the modem has a commercial/static IP address of...
