OS X Leopard :: Ethernet Will Not Connect After 10.5.6 Upgrade
After doing the upgrade to 10.5.6 on my MacBook Pro, the ethernet port no longer seems to work. The Network preferences panel claims that the cable for Ethernet is not plugged in when it certainly is and works just fine with other computers (Mac and PC). I know Airport works since that's how I'm connecting to write this.

15" MacBook Pro
Mac OS X (10.5.5)

OS X Leopard :: Can't Connect Two Macs Via Ethernet Cable
I'm trying to directly connect a couple of Mac's to make moving files back and forth easier then using a USB jump drive. I know I can set up a network, but that is out of the question right now. (Don't ask why I don't feel like getting into it) I'm trying to connect a system called Customization and another called Closed Captioning. I already have 2 systems talking to each other and that setup with no problems. Information: Intel Octocore Mac OS X (10.5.6) 8 GB Ram

Snow Leopard :: Cannot Connect To Facebook When Built In Ethernet Is On
I have a newly developed problem. I can't connect to facebook and only facebook using any browser on my OS X 10.6.5 Intel Macbook Pro (have tried Safari, Firefox, and Chrome) when I am using the built in ethernet connection. It will connect to facebook through the same router if it connects to the router wirelessly. It is not blocked by a firewall (it's my own home network). I can connect to Facebook using other intel macs that are connecting through the same router by built in ethernet. I checked my hosts file, and there is nothing that looks suspicious there. I cleared the facebook cookies in all of the browsers, and even reinstalled the browsers. Still no facebook. It's the only thing that won't load. If both built in ethernet and airport are turned on, facebook won't load either. The only configuration where it loads is airport on and built in ethernet off. I would rather be on the faster connection, so any help to get this sorted out would be appreciated. Information: Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.5)

Snow Leopard :: 3 Macs Cannot Connect On Small Ethernet Network
I have 3 new Macs. I have good internet connection which goes by ethernet from a new modem/router to 2 Macs and by wireless to the third. I cannot get the computers to see each other properly for file sharing. I have turned on all the file sharing buttons and permissions. Sometimes I can see one of the Macs when I "Browse for other Servers" but I can never connect to it. I have 2 Airport Extremes, one of which is used to connect a laptop wirelessly in another room. (The airport signal direct from the iMac is not quite strong enough.) Why I cannot see or connect the 3 together properly? Information: iMac 27" 3.06 MHz Mac OS X (10.6.4) Also a 15" Macbook Pro and iMac 2.4MHz

OS X Leopard :: Using Ethernet Connection To Printer And Web - Unable To Connect
I have recently bought a laser printer which will only connect to my mac via ethernet cable. After many problems, I was using both internet and printer easily at different times, for about 3 weeks. Then . . . firstly I couldn't connect to the internet, which I solved and it connects each time now. So I needed to use my laser (Epson Aculaser C8500) and although it is connected with the cable it will not recognize this. I have tried adjusting system preferences, but it will not connect.

Snow Leopard :: After Upgrade Cannot Connect To Wireless Network
I have seen other that have had issues connecting to a network that they normally could before the upgrade, I am in the same situation. But, I have tried all the other solutions that I have seen, deleting plist files, making new locations.

OS X :: MacBook Will Not Connect Via Ethernet
So as of mid-day my Macbook will not connect to the internet in our apartment via ethernet. I have tried all my roomates ethernet plug ins and it still does not work. It shows a green light next to ethernet saying it his hooked up but it won't load any pages. I've tried network diagnostics? When I try to go to a webpage it goes to a white screen and after 5min of trying to load it bring up the "not connected to the internet" text. I guess I'll make a trip to the apple store wednesday if at all possible unless you guys come up with something. This machine is out of warranty so I'm wondering what would be the worse case scenario and how much am I looking at spending?

OS X :: New IMac Can't Connect With Ethernet
I bought an iMac and have been loving it but one thing I can't figure out how to fix is why it can't connect to the internet through my Ethernet cable. My PPC G4 connects just fine. I've googled and found nothing that helps. I tried deleting my system preferences but that didn't help. It just says there is no Ethernet cable connected even though it clearly is. I can't try with wifi because for some reason anything running OS X can't connected to my homes wifi. Not sure if this matters but it's a 27" iMac, 3.03 ghz intel with 1tb hard drive.

OS X :: Unable To Connect Via Ethernet Port
I've had the 13" aluminum macbook since October 2008 and I've never had a problem with the wireless or an Ethernet connection. I turned on my computer the other day and I couldn't connect to the internet through my ethernet port. I've determined it's not my connection (friend's macbook connects fine) and I've tried connecting to other ports around my campus and it still doesnt work. On network settings, the light is green, cable detected, assigned an ip address and dns but it simply times out when I try to connect to anything (firefox, itunes store, mail, etc.). I'm fairly new to mac os x.

OS X :: Cannot Connect To Internet Via Ethernet Or Wireless
I'm brand new to Mac. I just got a MacBook Pro, and I've been having some troubles connecting to the internet at home. I have a LinkSys WRT54GS router with Firmware Version: v1.50.9. I'm unable to access the internet through both ethernet and wireless. Concerning wireless, I have tried connecting using WEP, and have tried entering passcodes both with and without an "$" and "0x" preceding the 10 digit WEP passcode. I have also tried switching the encryption over to WPA2, and still nothing. I have even disabled the security to see if it's able to connect -- it's not. I had some error regarding not being able to find it's IP or something along those lines.

OS X :: Connect Mac To PS3 Via Ethernet?
my PS3 and Mac are in my room, on the same desk, my wireless router is downstairs. The PS3 is getting a poor connection (40% signal) sometimes cutting out which makes it hard to download PS network stuff. My mac has a solid signal.What I want to do is connect my PS3 directly to my Mac using an ethernet cable. I just want to know how to get the PS3 to connect to the Macs connection through the wire. Apparently the PS3 needs to recognise the mac as a router?

Mac :: How Would I Get The Windows Side To Connect To The Internet Via Ethernet?
I just installed the Home Edition of Windows XP (from 2002) via Boot Camp. I'm having trouble getting online in Windows. Most of the Internet options seem to revolve around modems, which I don't have. I use a router connected to my computer via Ethernet. There's also a wireless function, which I can use in a pinch.How would I get the Windows side to connect to the Internet via Ethernet? I don't intend to spend much time online on the Windows side (due to viruses), but I'd like to be able to go online if necessary.

MacBook Pro :: Cannot Connect To Internet Via Ethernet Cable
I've looked around but haven't found anyone with exactly this problem. I can't get my MacBook Pro to connect to the internet via ethernet at my dorm. I am on the same connection with the same cable on a different computer right now, so I know that is not the problem. When I plug the cable in to my MacBook Pro it tells me that the cable IS connected, but when I try to go on a site on either Safari or Firefox, it takes a couple minutes trying and then tells me that I don't have a connection. I guess the problem lies somewhere between the connection and the browser. I am using DHCP (I don't know what that means but that's the default and other posts have said to make sure that that's what one is using) and the "connect using PPPoE" box is not checked. My ip starts out 192 etc. so I assume it isn't self-assigned. Information: MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.11)

Hardware :: Possible To Connect Airport Express And Ethernet At The Same Time?
is it possible to run both a wireless connection with airport express, as well as have a direct ethernet connection to the computer? i have a simple, two-way ethernet splitter than comes from the port in the wall that should technically be able to do this, but i have tried this without success and i am guessing there is a little more to this problem than just having both connections hooked up at the same time. anyways right now i am running on an airport express wireless connection. at my school there is a campus-based p2p program that can only be accessed through direct ethernet connection, leaving me inaccessible to it when i am on my wireless connection. there is a bunch of registration junk that has to be done when i switch from ethernet to wireless, which is why i would prefer to have both set up at once.

Hardware :: AEBS Bridge Mode / Connect To Ethernet Or WAN?
I currently have an O2 wireless ADSL2 Modem connected to my AEBS. I've disabled the Wi-Fi signal of the wireless box since its a G router and i'd rather be using the AEBS for its N signals. I'm wondering if i should connect the O2 box to the ethernet port of the AEBS or WAN port whilst in bridge mode? or it doesn't matter?

I aksed my classmate nextdoor if his internet port was working through the ethernet port he said it was.... i am not that tech savy so keep vocabulary to something simple lmaooo.

MacBook Aluminum :: Can't Connect Two Macs Via Ethernet Cable
I just bought a new MacBook. I would like to use Migration Assistant to move everything from my old iMac G5 to my new MacBook. Since the new MacBooks don't support Firewire, I would like to transfer everything via an Ethernet connection between the two computers. I plugged in the Ethernet cable into both computers but both computers don't seem to recognize that the cable is there. On the G5, I get the message, "Cable for built-in Ethernet is not plugged in", and on the MacBook, I get the message, "Cable unplugged". Information:

IMac :: Cannot Connect To Internet (DSL Modem With Ethernet Cable)
My father in law had a power failure at the house, and since then, he cannot connect to the internet via DSL Modem connected via ethernet cable. Being that he is 1000 miles away, I am trying to diagnose via phone. System Info: Imac 17", purchased new around 2006- Intel chip, running Tiger OS Symptoms: - Cannot connect via ethernet - When searching system profiler, "Built-in Ethernet" shows up, but no MAC address - In Network settings, he can see the various connection ports, but cannot check the box on "Built-in Ethernet" to turn the port on... won't let him. - Wireless is not an option, I don't want to be 24/7 tech support Diagnosis? I am thinking that the power surge may have fried the ethernet port on the motherboard. Repair Solution: Planning on picking up the Apple USB Ethernet adapter. I know it doesn't have the correct drivers to run on Tiger, but found a driver online that claims it allows use of the usb adapter on Panther on up. Questions - Does this sound like a fried ethernet port? Any other easy diagnostic tests I can do? Does the USB adapter sounds like a decent solution?

MacBook Pro :: Cannot Connect Directly To Printer Using Ethernet Port?
My Macbook Pro is running 10.6.5. We have an Airport Extreme network, originally set up on the first floor of our home. My older HP Laserjet 5000N was plugged directly into the base station with an ethernet cable and worked fine. There's no USB port on this printer. We moved the Airport base station to the second floor, so I lost my ethernet cable connection to my printer. I can't move the printer upstairs, so I'd like to bring my Macbook down and connect directly to it. I've tried to do this and cannot make it work. I've tried to add it via "Printers & Faxes" in System Preferences. My Mac doesn't "see" it. I've tried to add it manually, using the HP's JetDirect IP address -- with no luck. I've switched cables, I've turned everything on and off a million times. I even connected my Mac to our old Netgear wireless router, then connected it to the printer --with no luck. All I get is "Can't connect...will retry in XX seconds". Information: MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.5)

Hardware :: Connect Both Airport Express And Ethernet Wire To Router?
I have a modem (Tilgin Vood 342) that came from the phone company which I use to connect my old desktop PC and my new MacBook Pro to the internet, through two separate ethernet cables. The modem has three ethernet ports and connects to the internet through an ethernet port in the wall. I want to buy an Airport Express in order to get wireless internet to my MacBook, but since my desktop PC can't receive wireless internet, I still need it to be plugged into the modem through a cable (I don't mind that). So my question is, can I use one of the modem ports for the Airport Express and another for the ethernet cable without there being a conflict? I'm asking because I went to an electronics store and I was told that there might be a conflict and that I should buy an Airport Extreme or another router with ports in order for it to work. I would really prefer the Express because it's and it's the most I can pay for.

OS X Leopard :: Can I Do AirPort And Ethernet At Same Time - How Do I Setup Ethernet Connection
I currently have several computers networked through the Airport with no problem. Each can see access the internet and each can see each other file system (I have sharing turned on). I can copy small files via the airport connection, but it is way too slow.I want to connect two of the computers using a CAT-5 cable and using the Ethernet port for occasional large file transfer. Yet, I don't want this set up to be permanent, i.e. I would unplug the cable most of the time.20GB, iPod Nano 8GB iPhone 8GB

Hardware :: Get Airport Express - Connect Directly To 360 With Ethernet Cable?
I have an Xbox 360 set up in my bedroom which is at the opposite end of the house. I have an airport extreme base station (new model) connected to my modem and PC (PC is not wireless, thus why i have it connected).... I have the wireless adapter connected to my xbox 360. I can play online with no lag (game: modern warfare 2) when nobody is on the pc but when someone is on the pc I get very noticeable lag. I guess I am fighting to split the connection with the pc. What is my best solution? 1) Have my ISP boost the speed of my modem. I didn't know if this would help by giving us more speed to fight over. 2) Get an Airport express and set it up closer to my bedroom/xbox 360. Will the express still fight for the connection with my pc like my wireless adapter on the 360? 3) Get the airport express and connect it directly to my 360 with an ethernet cable. Will i still be fighting for connection with the pc?

MacBook Pro :: Connect To Internet - Ethernet / Network Settings Says Not Connected
My Macbook Pro was just delivered to me today and I've been trying to get it to connect to the internet. My downstairs computer has a wireless internet connection and I have been trying to access that connection. The name of the network comes up onto my Mac and it shows its connected, but in the Network settings the Ethernet, FireWire, and AirPort all say not connected. I have looked in the manual and around the site and have not found anything to solve my problem, so I was hoping someone here had the answer. Information: Windows Mac OS X (10.6) Macbook Pro 15 inch
