    Oh dear, OK on my Mac but my iPhone and iPad both claim I'm not connected to the
    internet (wrong) and "Unable to Verify Security Response". Oh well, it is the first RSR so
    should we really expect teething problems for an important update?

    I'll wait a while as suggested by the popup and retry later.

    I note that RSRs are user reversible. Let's hope we don't need to do so that often!
