    Fix the 404 error retrying Micronet info packet (MININFO.ZIP not mininfo.zip)

    I'm not sure if the file was renamed at some point or what, but apparently
    it's currently named in ALL CAPS.

    Use BACKBONE.NA from Vertrauen as echolist for all Fido zones
    (anyone have a better authoritative http link to a fixed file
    name or archive name?).
