Hello everyone,
My apologies if this has already been asked. I am long time Windows PC user and I am waiting for the new 2012 iMac to release before making the switch to Mac. With that being said, I was wondering if there is a way to make OSX use both the WiFi and LAN connections at the same time for increased performance?
Correct me if i'm wrong but it's my understanding right now that when both LAN & WiFi are connected, some network traffic will go through LAN and some network traffic will go through WiFi. Or perhaps there is a priority setup in OSX? Perhaps LAN>WiFi? So if LAN is connected, it will prioritize it over WiFi for ALL traffic? Can someone clarify how OSX manages this double network connection?
Long story short, is there any advantage to having WiFi connected when already connected with gigabit LAN?
Thanks in advance!
