[PLUG] Network issues

[Denis Heidtmann]

Don't jump to conclusions based upon a novice like me reading a
script!  There could be stuff in there that I missed.

It sounds like the consensus here is that to duplicate what happens to
the network during boot I would need to [remove the driver (rmmod),
restart the network( ifup?) , ping ], repeat 'till bored.  Is this
correct?
