Well, resetting broadband connections (DSL, cable modem) is relatively common in my experience. Once a day does sound like a lot. I have a cable modem at home and I have to reset it one once or twice a month. I don't really know what you mean by 2 cards. 2 Airport cards? Have you tried updating the software on the iMac to the latest version? (MacOS and Airport software) Is your iMac's TCP/IP set to load only when needed? (TCP/IP control panel:Edit:User Mode set to Admin then click on the options button in the control panel window.) I'd uncheck that box. -Dave -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
