[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1815229, member: 307555"] You are running Snow Leopard and using a new modem with the latest updated protocols for internet connecting..... I imagine that could be your issue. Some of the apps are going to attempt to check for updates using older protocols over a new modem with new protocols - this would cause the wonky behavior issues. The 3.1 can run up to El Capitan 10.11.6. I am aware that may cause issues with some apps you are using though. Assuming your mac does not have the optional wifi card, I suggest trying a wireless adapter although I am not sure that would fix the issue. Lisa [/QUOTE]
