Yes, I had that problem once. I'm thinking that that's not the problem since the networked computer connected to the Netgear router works fine. Does that make sense?
It could still be the network connection that simply needs time to get up and running. I've got the same thing where I work, the first time I need to print something from a specific printer, I have to wait a bit for the print to come out (15 seconds or so), after that the printing always starts immediately (No, I'm not talking about a laserprinter that needs to warm up, this is an old printer, some type of daisy wheel printer I believe, yes I know, ancient shit).
I hunt for the truth
