Hi Sam. Yesterday I tried altering the channel (I’m sure there is a correct term for this) on the Fritzbox - with no effects. And this morning, I changed the channel to 8 - and it seems (touch wood) to be working OK now. Bizarre, as I’d tried it yesterday and it was still not working.
Don’t know if it is time to by a new iMac, but I don’t like the lack of USB ports as I have printers, scanner etc which need them. Unless I’m misunderstanding the new iMac … Anyway, I shall just hope that a) this keeps working and b) we don’t have more power cuts - which really seem to upset it!
