Steve,
I have an answer for my issue. I did check the post 11 and 13 thank you. Here is what is actually happening. I only spent a week and rebuilt a computer in the process.
Remember I was running a complete wireless show. That would be 11 LEs on wireless. I checked to make sure I was running the latest firmware for wireless. I decided late last night, to try a spare LE that I never connected wireless. Let me mention that I love the wireless option. It is amazing! This is not by any means a common problem with wireless and I suggest using it when you can.
Well after connecting my Non-wireless LE, I discover my dongles are fine. Which probably means my CPU was fine, just slow. Anyway, the wireless cards were causing my issue. If they are placed and connected inside the LE, the LE pic would lose its firmware and not use the DMX signal. This would explain the data light on, but not working. Even with the jumper placed in the correct position if would still fail the pic.
Once I removed the actual wireless card for the LE it works fine in the wired config.
Interesting, I also have two TX/RX and decided to try them with each other,and they failed at my house and with proper separation. I ran them over to my friends house out in the desert and they work fine. I decided to see how busy the wifi frequency is around my house. It turns out it is as chatty as a 15 year old on Red Bull. The chatter is huge! I know it is a long story, but my areas too Busy for wifi this year.
My show is hard wired with a bunch of cat5, but it is running.
I want to thank everyone for the help and extra checks. I really needed all the help to make sure i don't get tunnel vision.
Thank and Merry Christmas,
Kevin
