My real question is why would some wireless devices loose touch with my in-home network. I understand interference, so no need to go into microwave ovens and cordless phones. But a networked printer and occasionally iPhones think they are connected; that is, they show the correct symbols and words in the appropriate settings, but they respond as if they are not on a network.
What corrects the problem (temporarily, which could be a week or a month) is to power off the router and then restart it.
Any thoughts?
On a Mac since 1984.
