Perhaps, isn't it this?

Possibly.... not 100% sure. I was tinkering with it again last night.
I was able to connect, and this time I left the connection open...
after a rather long time my network connection came back. I had
limited connectivity... very limited, but it was working, and ALL
network traffic was being routed through the VPN connection. That's
the next thing I need to look into... I need/want to route only some
network traffic through the VPN connection, and the rest via my own
ISP.

I have no idea though why after negotiating a connection that it takes
several minutes for the NIC to return to an "alive" state....
