I need an answer

Wrong host network setup (no comms)

ip a

to diagnose

Ok some how the IP address got screwed up the above problem as you pointed out no Comms. When I went to the linux wired menu and put it as 10.10.10.2 and in the Pncconf card address to 10.10.10.10 the 3 GUIs will now start up fine.
Now I had run each GUI and timed when it failed this was my observation.
Axis failed after 8 minutes, QTPlasmaC failed about 20 minutes and QTDragon failed about 22 minutes.
I removed the wireless mouse and keyboard and installed a wired set. I ran Axis for 1 hour and 35 minutes no fail. I am stopping at this point and will move the controller to the shop and get back to fun things.
Thanks for you help and having patience with a slow learner (being 79 don't help either) (: (:

I went back and looked at your earlier errors now we know you have an INtel NIC.
the main thing here is the coalescing setting PCW mentioned. Its described in the docs here
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.9/html/man/man9/hm2_...h%20static%20address

You still have years ahead of fun! Look at Gene Haskett. He's in his 90's and still playing with linuxcnc. Hope its not still on his first machine!

Thanks Rod I still have a few project running around in my head and the desire to do them (: (: (:
