I have a similar problem with unreliable handshakes to a few sites in R16.
I know that a few of them are unsupported cipher suite issues, but that is
the minority. Something else is causing one of my utilities to fail on TLS
handshake with a few sites, and I haven't had a chance to thoroughly check
the problem.

I'm sure that its not just the two of us... ?
