Thanks to those who tried to help.  Well, we can close this one -- unless someone has a fix for my PC.  Now, after some fiddling with settings, my laptop, phones, 2 other PCs all connect OK.  It’s down to just one PC, and that one is about 12 years old, and has recently displayed the Blue Screen Of Death a few times.  Oh, well, time for a replacement!

Did you try a simple factory reset

Not yet.  Rebooted, powered down, to no avail.  Would my ISP need to re-provision if I reset?

Well, that seems to have worked.  For now.  It seems that if I make any change in the settings (like a channel or rename) the Modem/Router has to be rebooted.
