Retire?? Why? This is taylor made for a Linux User, Learn how to fix problems, which make YOU a better User/Administrator of Your System. look in /var/log, and see what messages are on file there.
Everything that happens on your set up gets logged, even if No errors/mistakes/ pop up, even when you boot up, it all gets logged. check it out.

Look all I'm asking for is some help, if you have nothing better to do than be a lil d*ck about my post you dont need to be posting here.
I changed the timeout from 75 to 150 and gave it a try it connected and printed out a local and remote ip address within the first 2 seconds. So I guess it worked. It's all too weird.
