Hi,
Having previously used just one PC at home using Tiscali Broadband, (not wireless), the purchase of a new iMac at Christmas prompted me to change my provider to Virgin, including TV, phone and wireless broadband to enable me to work with both my PC and iMac on the same network.
However, I have run into a couple of problems, firstly with the wireless connection to the iMac (signal very strong, but connection seems to drop off when accessing some websites which I have currently solved by connecting an ethernet cable to the imac), and more importantly with my outgoing email, using my email address initially provided by Tiscali, which I would like to keep. There is no problem with receiving emails, but I am unable to send any from my email account.
I would be grateful if someone could give me a bit of straightforward advice, as I am not particularly great with the technical aspects of wireless networking.
Thanks in advance.
