Networking problems since upgrade to 7.1.4 and going back to 7.1.2

This is a frustrating problem I cannot quite pinpoint, but will try to explain.

I updated from 7.1.2 to 7.1.4 a few days ago.  I started having issues with Cloudflare tunnel docker.  The tunnel kept degrading, then coming back, then degrading, then coming back, then degrading, then coming back, etc.

I initially thought it was a network cable issue, then an issue with one of my dockers using the tunnel, until I finally zeroed in  (after a day) on cloudflare tunnel docker.

I then went about creating new tunnels, deleting old tunnels and adding and removing tokens, deleting the docker, installing a new docker –all to no avail.

After looking at forums, it dawned on me that this might be a networking issue with 7.1.4.

So I reverted back to 7.1.2. 

But I am still having some wonky issues.  For example, docker containers have are updates, but when I try, no updates download.

Plugins check for update and sometimes I get a broken link, sometimes not.

I am at my wits end.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.tsunamidream-diagnostics-20250626-1935.zip

Quick note: my vms are rock solid. No networking issues with any of them.
