The correct path is 273/416 2604/104 140/1. It is specifically not a downlink 
of Dale's or else nobody else in the zone would be seeing the problems as Dale 
is conscientious enough to clean the regurgitated traffic from the stream. 
Would that 273/416 or he two nodes between it and the backbone would do the 
same.
