DSL-2750U router problems with POP Mail
I have just upgraded my router to a D-Link DSL-2750U.
As the installation CD would not run on the Mac, I used my Windows XP laptop to set up (successfully, by the way). I then disconnected the laptop and connected the Mac.
Surfing was fine, as was the wireless connection but I get an intermittent problem when using Mail. I often get the message from the connection doctor that
The server returned the error: The server “pop3.telkomsa.net” cannot be contacted on port 110.
SMTP works fine.
I can connect to the POP server successfully with Microsoft Outlook from my Windows XP laptop; the problem only occurs with the Mail program on the Mac.
Telkom not much help as they are only trained on Windows; D-Link do not think that it is the router and suggest the problem lies with the Mac.
My previous router, the Telkom ADSL 5102G worked with no problems - and still does, if I swap them.
What could be causing the problem?
iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)
