For ns1.zefox.net there is no problem and

ns2.zefox.net and others got a 17. instead of

The routing need not be the same from one
try to the next.

www.zefox.net     is similar.
www.zefox.com     is similar.
pelorus.zefox.org is similar.
nemesis.zefox.com is similar.
www.zefox.org     is similar.

Notably www.zefox.org was what I tried and
reported on before that had the failures.

I observed a initial connection sequence once
for pelorus.zefox.org where it briefly displayed
something like (not captured, just from memory):

16. gig1-1-1.gw.davsca11.sonic.net
17. (waiting for reply)
18. (waiting for reply)
19. pelorus.zefox.org

before changing to

16. gig1-1-1.gw.davsca11.sonic.net
17. ns2.zefox.net

That may be normal but usually timed such that I
would not usually see it.

But it might actually be evidence of a stage that
the leads to the overall failure by never getting
past the:

16. gig1-1-1.gw.davsca11.sonic.net
17. (waiting for reply)
18. (waiting for reply)
19. WHATEVER

in some cases.

However, in the above the below worked fine:

50.1.20.24 pelorus.zefox.org Pi3 13.1 usb-serial---50.1.20.28
50.1.20.28 www.zefox.org Pi3 -current usb-serial----50.1.20.25

What changed?
