Mi Mini Ethernet down

[AndrewWx]

Hi All:

My M1 Mini Ethernet port just stopped working. Network monitor says there is no cable attached. If I put the cable into a Ethernet to USB C connector it works perfectly. Has any one had this happen?

Mini M1 Ethernet Not Working

My Mac Mini M1 appears to have a problem with its ethernet connection to the network. Initially I thought that it was the modem as access to the internet had stopped. So I rebooted the modem. No go. Then I tried accessing the NAS, also ethernet connected. Still no go. I checked the settings...

Lost Ethernet port - 2018 Mac Mini

I have the 10GbE port on my 2018 Mac Mini. Yesterday I upgraded to a major new release on my NAS and it required me to rework my Mac's network shares. During a reboot on the Mac, I noticed the port on my switch flashing red. Yup, "no cable attached" warning in network settings. So far...

open a terminal and execute:

sudo ifconfig en0 down

followed by

sudo ifconfig en0 up

that should bring the ethernet connection back. Wich version of MacOS are you running?

The Ethernet port on my M1 Mac Mini suddenly stopped working today. I have tried multiple different router ports and cables with no success. I also ran it through the Apple Diagnostics test and that did not find any issues. I have tried the terminal commands suggested in this thread as well and they unfortunately didn't fix the issue either. Does anyone have any further ideas or suggestions before I look to book it into the Apple Store for them to take a look at?
