Had internet problems so was sent new Virgin superhub 3.0.
All been fine except 2 days running when watching live tv on bbc website connection drops.
after this, the mac wont see any networks, not my phone hotspot or my neighbours etc.
My laptop next to it can see 7-8 networks.
Also network symbol at top of screen all greyed out?
Restarting fixes but don't want to do that everyday.
On El Capitan.
iMac Line (2012 and Later)
If you have not already first check to see Wi-Fi is turned on, if it is on, please cycle it off and then on again. If that does not solve the problem please reset the NVRAM and restart in Safe Mode per the directions in NVRAM Reset & Safe Mode
