[QUOTE="ManoaHi, post: 1716882, member: 264133"] A new router will probably work. But first this sounds like you have MAC address filtering turned on and have not registered this iMac into the router. That it connects up with the Apple Store right away and they don't enable MAC address filtering. I can't check right now, but also check the Windows MAC address. I understand the same hardware, but I've seen this happen on my Nook Tablet. I have the N2A and the MAC address was different from the standard Nook tablet MAC address, yet using the same hardware. It was driving me nuts as our neighbor has no password on their router (I've since helped them enable the password) and I was able to connect to their router, but not mine. Then on a whim I checked the MAC address while on N2A and found there was a different MAC address from the stock Nook MAC address. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
