Hello Deon!

Check your TCP/IP flags entry in mbsetup 1.14.3.  By default, MBSE will only 
enable protocols that are listed there.

Mine is set to:

IBN,IFC,ITN:60177,XX,CM

MBSE will always use BinkP if both options are available, as BinkP is more 
efficient.  To override, you can override the flags for the node in question.
