Hi Ronni
Thank you so much for your help.
I am delighted to report that your "easy fix" worked.
Will certainly keep your instructions close by in case the problem reoccurs.
Thanks again..
Regards
John
Hello John,
An easy fix (if it works), worth trying first, is:
Open System Preferences . Security
Check "Require password to unlock each secure system preference". If
this doesn't solve the problem or the problem returns.
Try this:
Make sure you write down all your Network Settings as you may have
to re-configure your Network after deleting these files below.
In the Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ folder delete the following:
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist
preferences.plist
com.apple.nat.plist
All these files will regenerate as necessary when the associated
system features are accessed.
If you're using Airport or Internet Sharing you'll have to
re-establish the appropriate settings, because these will have been
lost when the preferences files are removed.
This should permanently correct the problem.
Cheers,
Ronni
