I have an iMac 8,1 that is having a particularly frustrating issue.
It connects to our wireless network just fine, lasts about 2 or 3 webpages, then will lose connection, forcing me to turn the wireless off and back on before it works again. repeat, repeat, repeat, etc...
Our other devices (2 macbook pros, pc, and 3 iphones) all work just fine with no problems. The computer is in the same room as the router, so signal strength is not an issue.
When I open network diagnostics, I have a green light on everything except internet and server, which are both yellow. Then when I run it, the wifi settings light flashes red, then back to green, and the internet and server then go from yellow to red.
no questionable sites have been visited with this computer, so it shouldn't be any sort of virus or malware. i've looked around and can't find any solutions online, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
