  Check the archives.  This is an OLD issue.

  Old Annex software doesn't process the TCP extensions properly.  If you
turn them off in FreeBSD, everything should work ok.

  Get the software on the Annex upgraded.  Or better yet, throw the Annex 
out and get a Portmaster instead.  At least TCP has never been broken on
these things.
