ok. no more fucking with wireless connections. i went and bought a 5port switch and now i have my laptop that is running the stratum, the blade, and internet connection all running into the switch. 

the stratum is running but my blade keeps resetting every 2 1/2 min.  it never connects to the pool.

my configuration is as follows:
