I'm retesting things now, and it certainly seems that recrimping the cable has helped.
Just a thought, but you'd probably be wise to still order a new cable from Stu. I was in the same position ("dodgy" cable batch victim, recrimped, started working again), but then slowly things began to deteriorate. And in very strange ways, I might add. Turned out to be the cable. Just finally gave up the ghost. New cable from Stu got me going again faster than you can say "empeg withdrawl".
