Hmmm. Just last week a nine month-old Macsense router turned sour on a client using ATT cable. In this case the router was hosed and I'm returning it (after replacing it in the system with a Netgear router).
Macsense's email support was quick like a bunny, so do contact them if you haven't already. But your problem may be specific to the misbehaving Mac; I'm not sure what it's doing based on your description (but I'm extra thick this a.m.). >Everything worked well with my MIH120 Macsense router for >almost a year.
