 Solution

For odd $n$, the denominator is $(n+1{)}^2$; for even $n$, it is $(n-1{)}^2$. There is no zero denominator in the printed index range. For all $n\ge 2$,The comparison test for series with the convergent p-series gives absolute convergence. In fact the consecutive pair $n=2k-1,2k$ contributes $1/(2k{)}^2+1/(2k-1{)}^2$, so the sum is the same as ${\sum }_{m=1}^{\infty }{m}^{-2}$. Positivity justifies this paired reordering; an alternating-sign appearance in the denominator does not make this an alternating series.
