I agree that is by far the most likely situation, with the proviso that there could be a hardware/software problem with the iMac.
I know that the cable system is supposed to provide more than one address so that a different MAC can be connected and receive an IP address without a restart, but I would now turn the modem off for an hour and then start up the new computer only after the modem has been powered on with lights stabilized for a few minutes.
