Anne,

We had similar sounding issues a few weeks ago. After adding a couple of more wireless thingies, service got unreliable and connections would break. The thingies? An iPhone and an iPad.

The solution, in our case, was simple once I finally stumbled across it. A new, higher quality router. The entry level units, it seems, get more easily confused when the number of wireless connections exceed some number - way smaller than the theoretical limit. Operations have been smooth since.

I have been using light DSL for my Internet connection. Today the service failed twice. The first time I was able to restart the modem/ router and Airport Express but a little while later the connection failed again. According to Win.net, my ISP, the modem was working and talking to the Airport and seemed to be talking to the iMac but nothing.

I now have the modem hooked up to my laptop and all seems to be working. Is it possible for something to go bad on the iMac that would cause this. All else seems to be working on the iMac. Is it dying. I had hoped to put off buying a new iMac until later this year. Should I wait. Will new iMac models be coming out later in 2012?

Any advise greatly appreciated.
