Hello Every One, just upgrade from monterey to ventura. On my network with various devices, I have some on static IP different from what being advertised by the DHCP server on the network. Usually in Mac OS X and MacOS prior to Ventura I was able to create different WiFi Service on the same WiFi...

I had to switch internet service providers, which required me to get a new router as it uses different technology. If I have my old non-internet router connected to my Mac via ethernet and my new internet-providing router connected to my Mac via WiFi, how can I tell my Mac that when I want to...

I'm seeking recommendations for a new WiFi router, to replace my venerable Linksys WRT3200ACM. That's the last router I bought, and boy, things have sure changed between then and now in the world of routers. $600 routers? That's a new thing. Anyway, the short story is, this is a small...

With the Xfinity app, I can see all of the devices connected to my network (and I have labeled them all). But, there are two connected devices that I am struggling to identify. The device names are: 1E0C3EA3746D 9A2A726FCBE2 I tried doing a web search for these names, but no luck. Xfinity has...

Pardon my bad English, I took a look at the power consumption when using the 10 Gbit Ethernet option:

I am an autist, and am stuck in a care home so I have no control over the internet. I have lamented loud and long to both the manager and head office, but nobody cares enough to do anything about it (staff only care about things when they affect them). To someone like me a decent internet...

I have a Macintosh performa 6360 with a Apple 28.8K internal modem inside of it and I cannot get it to work. I know that everything else in my modem connection lineup is working except the modem on the Mac. The modem is a 820-0809-a. Any help would be great thank you! Also if the modem I have...

I was looking for a tool that would automatically report on all active TCP connections on my Macbook Air M1 and their latency metrics. Similar to this NetworkLatencyView tool and screenshot below. I realize there are tools like Pingplotter for Mac and others where I could manually enter in the...

My Mac Studio is connected to the network via 1GB ethernet and WiFI 6. Wired is still a lot faster with SMB than wireless. The Service Order is set to be Ethernet first and WiFi last. Yet the mounted drives always connect with the slower WiFI. I have to disable WiFI, mount the drives, and...

I was just in the Network preferences for my Mac Studio to verify how to find certain settings and I noticed something strange (at least to me). In the list of network adapters in the left column there was an entry for the Studio Display and it's using a self-assigned IP address. Is this...

I'm running 12.4 with everything updated and non-beta. The Ethernet connection works and I'm able to connect to the Internet using it. However, it does not get listed in the network preferences pane as shown in the screenshot below. The problem with this is that I am unable to change my...

I compared the internal 10 Gbit/s network adapter of my base model Mac Studio (Max) with an external Thunderbolt 3 10 Gbit/s network adapter from Sonnet. Internal: External: The difference seems to be a more conservative power ramp up (take a look at the beginning and the end of the graph)...

Hello, I'm trying to connect to my LAN router. After I plug-in the LAN Cable and manually set my IP, Subnet Mask, Router and DNS Server address, ethernet says it is Connected (Screenshot Below). However; when I try to ping the router through terminal, it says: Request timeout for icmp_seq 0...

So, I am looking for advice on a new network setup I am contemplating: I have relatively fast internet (1000/100) and I right now use my ISP Modem as router. I have connected a LinkSys Velop WiFi Mesh system to it (in Bridge), as well as a few LAN switches, to connect my QNAP NAS, my ReadyNAS...

After recently getting a M1 Max, I was forced to switch from SMB to AFP due to the notorious Watchdog WindowServer kernel panic issue. AFP seems to be performing fine. Using 10GbE over Thunderbolt to a QNAP NAS, I get over 1GB/s write, and 630MB/s read. After the M1 Max sleeps and wakes up...

Curios if anyone else is experiencing this but I have three macs: Machine A - 2019 Mac Pro Monterey 12.1. Machine B - 2021 MBP m1 MAX Monterey 12.1 and Machine C Mac Pro 2009 High Sierra 10.13.6. When I connect them, whether it's via thunderbolt 3 bridge between the two newer macs, or Gigabit...

This is driving me nuts and has done for years through several major versions of macOS. It happens all the time. Weekly at least. I wake the computer and go to use the internet but nothing loads. Try "google.co.uk" for example and Safari's loading progress bar goes to about 10% across (the...
