My bet is that the new modem (home wireless router) is enforcing one of
  • Guest mode. This is where one or more of the wireless networks (SSIDs) are prevented from connecting to cabled devices or devices on other wireless networks.
  • Wireless Isolation: this means that a wireless device cannot see any other device on the network, cabled or otherwise.
  • Band blocking: preventing devices from communicating with other devices on a different wireless band (2.4GHz vs 5GHz).
It also could be that the computer running calibre is seeing a new network topology and is blocking connections. On Windows this would probably be evidenced as the "network" not being "home".
Yes, CC via Calibre.
The modem is 5G but also 2G seems to be available. I connected to the 5G on both computer and iPad. I understand only a fraction of what you suggest may be a problem but I’ll fool around with th settings that seem to apply. Thanks.
