I made a backup of the original SD card so I can re-install the GW in out of the box state. 35 years of coding make you paranoid 
To save time and avoid endless ping pong with the factory support , I ordered a brand new ic880a card (I also feel it is a hardware issue, just want to confirm it and get sure I’m not an ‘idiot’ (LOL) in linux setup. ) I am receiving the new card in 2 days.
If I cannot setup the new , I will know I have to go back to school :))
