Summary - a friend has a macbook and a Pro (!), her husband has a PC which is working perfectly at home over wireless, and her machines work perfectly at work. But at home she has erratic problems. The following summary needs more details but while I get them, does anyone recognise the pattern of things here? I'm aware I don't know which ports might be affected from just the app names. Does anyone have suggestions for further diagnostics?
