Sounds like the network tests stopped running. Could you check in the
/var/log/hobbit/bb-network.log file if there are any messages about
what happened ?

Also, just to be certain, see if there is a section in
hobbitlaunch.cfg to actually run the "bbtest-net" command. Upgrading
Hobbit does update the hobbitlaunch.cfg file, and it just might be
that somehow it stripped a section out of the file. (It shouldn't, but
you know how things can be buggy :-))
