Maybe your call to tech support will come up with something.

Sounds like it -- durn it.

I have researched this and ended up against a blank wall. If you find out
more, please do share it with us. I would think the ability to use the serial
port as a console might come in handy for debugging. Absolutely zero doco
that is readily available on this issue.

I assume you did try a complete reset of the network and ip filters ...
please do let us know the status of what you find when it gets resolved.
