Have you restarted your network again?
Did your iPhone update itself while you were away?
Has Gmail changed its security settings during your absence? They love playing with their system.
All wired devices are okay and a Surface Pro connected by wireless was okay too. It only seems to be Apple products.
Netgear isn't smart enough to make subtle changes to products that pick on different brands. Have you looked in the Apple support world?

Was that Netgear support or something you found with a web search? If the latter, it may not have been Netgear you talked to.
What did they ask you to do?
