    The ping is using an ICMP connection that is separate from the TCP 7255 download connection for the update.

    It sounds like something in-between the STO application and the patch server is the problem. The new connection (session) you create with the ping is helping you with it.

    It shouldn't be DNS related. It could be a TCP window size issue.

    I would look at network drivers, if you are using wireless for your PC adapter, and your ISP connection.
