There isn't some limit on number of machines that can connect coming from somewhere? Could be political/economic or technical. I see wifi routers advertised as only working with n clients.

Note that the dns request did resolve.
But my dns requests are probably being answered by dnsmasq in the router.
I cannot find anything in the routers copious settings (it's DD-WRT)
that would prevent a connection, but it refuses to pass. I've tried
several ipv4 addresses in that 192,168.nn block. No other machines, 5
more, on this local net are being denied network access.
Ideas? I'm nearly out of hair. But its been slowly thinning for 82+ years
too so I can't blame it on this too loudly.
I've only run Stretch briefly so far, in the context of trying to find out whether USB boot worked (patchy, but might have been a power issue).
I'd suggest checking using traceroute -I and then looking at route -n and/or ip route ls which should give you a bit more of an indication of what's going on. IME this sort of thing is usually because the router isn't NATting the entire 192.168.x.x range.
