I think, there is a problem with the initialization of the sockaddr_*
structure in the program. Try to print out all data of the sockaddr*
structure provided to the ext_connect() call directly before the call.
Example:
printf("sin_family = %d\n",((struct sockaddr_in*)address)->sin_family);
where "address" is the sockaddr* pointer given to ext_connect(). Here, I
assumed you used IPv4 (sockaddr_in). For IPv6, use sockaddr_in6, sin6_family
etc..
Try also to print out the port number and the IP address itself. If all
information given to ext_connect() is correct, we have to make some further
examinations. Otherwise, your program does either not correctly initialize
the sockaddr_* structure (e.g. by leaving fields uninitalized) or some part
of the program overwrites the values set.

I am quite sure that this problem is not caused by a hardware fault.
