Intel Mac :: Stopped Recognizing Ethernet Connection?

May 10, 2012

Airport is working fine, but the network port is having a problem. I have rebooted everything several times (cable modem, computer, wireless modem). I even reset the PRAM. Nothing works. I called Time Warner. After trying some things, they said there is something wrong with my MAC. I will probably take it into the Apple store, but I thought I would try this chat area first.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Intel Mac :: Stopped Recognizing Internet Connection (Ethernet) After Announcing An IP Address

Feb 22, 2012

I had no trouble getting on line until last week when a message came on that

IP address 192.168.0.139

was in use by

04:0c:ce:54:c1:e5 

DHCP Server 192.168.0.1 

Since that time, no matter if I plug it into one router or the other  (I use a router in my office to share the one ethernet cable that comes down the hall) it claims that the ethernet is working and it knows that it is connected to the Internet,but it cannot access the Internet. IT seems to be stuck in a cycle of navel-gazing, constantly focused on its own ethernet IP address.

All I know how to do is operate the thing; we have no IT person here. A visitor set up our network for us a few years ago. Only the iMac has this problem; my PC laptops go online just fine. But all my work is on the iMac.

Intel Mac :: Ethernet And Wireless Suddenly Stopped Working?

2009 iMac running Snow Leopard. 

NO issues until this morning.  Put computer to sleep and it would not boot back up properly (stuck on Apple boot screen and it FINALLY came on after many tries).  Now my wifi or ethernet won't actually "connect" to the internet.  It says connected under network preferences and it's green, but I have no internet connection...

MacBook Pro :: Stopped Recognizing All 4Gbs Of Ram - Down To 2Gb

May 3, 2010

It went from having 4Gb yesterday (or the last time I checked it anyway) down to 2Gb. I'm using a Macbook Pro Unibody bought in July 2009. System Profiler says that it only has RAM in one slot. What's going on and how can I sort it? After Effects is also saying that it can't multi-process - I was able to previously so I'm confused on that too.

Mac Mini :: Ethernet Port Seems To Have Stopped Working?

Apr 16, 2010

I've been having an annoying problem lately. The ethernet port on my Mac Mini seems to have stopped working. It happened when I was switching routers. Most likely I just unplugged it from the old router, and into the new one. After that, no more connection, nothing changes when I plug something in.

As far as troubleshooting goes, I've plugged it into other ports, and into my MacBook Air (Just to get a Self assigned IP) and nothing works. I know these ports work with my other computers. I've reset the SMC and PRAM.It works in bootcamp so this makes me think it's not hardware. Any other suggestions?

OS X :: Ethernet Jack And Cable Stopped Working - Plugged Capsule

Feb 10, 2009

I usually use an ethernet cable to connect to the internet. I recently bought a time capsule and in trying to set it up i plugged the capsule into the ethernet jack and my ethernet cable stopped working. I connected my computer into the capsule and its not the cable thats broken. I'm currently lost on what to try next, when i connect my computer to the jack, it says "nothing is plugged in" or something like that.

OS X :: Using Ethernet Port Connection

Jun 14, 2009

I used the MacRumors Buyer's Guide for several months to find the best time to buy a MacBook. I'd never had a Mac before and found it to be so valuable. I hope someone in the forum can be as helpful as the site has been.

Yesterday I bought a new MacBook Pro 13" and as a store option the RAM was doubled to 4GB. Everything has worked well so far, in both OS X and Windows XP through Boot Camp, except for either OS accessing the LAN cable on my home ADSL. Both my portable modem (EMobile network in Japan) and the wireless seem to work with no issue, and both OS will recognize the ethernet port. I'm concerned that perhaps the ethernet adapter was modified when the store installed the memory.

I can remove the ethernet cable from one computer (where it works without any settings changes on my Windows notebook) and plug the same cable into the MacBook and it will not be recognized. The Mac OS error is that no cable is inserted.

However, as it's my first Mac, I didn't know if perhaps some new settings are required to make things work smoothly. Is there any DNS settings etc. that must be set for it to connect? Also is there some kind of connection diagnostic that will specify the location of the error in the machine? I'd like to exhaust any option before shipping this back to the store to be repaired or replaced.

Hardware :: Ethernet Printer On Airport Network Stopped Working - How To Configure

Jan 21, 2010

I have a Mac/Windows home network with two airport extreme base stations. One is connected to my dsl modem. The other is used wirelessly to extend the network, and I have a Xerox Phaser 5500 connected to one of its lan ports. Until recently, all computers, connected wirelessly could share the internet connection and print to the Phaser. Due to a power failure, I had to reset both the Airport base stations. I can still connect to the internet, however I can not print from any of the computers.

IMac :: Losing Ethernet Connection?

May 11, 2010

Got my iMac back in the end of February and it's been working flawlessly. About a month ago though, my connection started randomly dropping after periods of moderate internet-use. Say maybe, 20-30mins of browsing. It usually starts working fine after I shut the computer off for a while and try again. I thought maybe it was the ethernet cable, so I got another one, but with the same result. So it got me thinking, maybe it is my ISP. Called Verizon up and they said everything looked good on their end and that my IP was showing up fine. They reset my connection, but with no result. The gentleman on the phone suggested it maybe the computer.

I took my Dell laptop and tried surfing using the built-in Wifi for a while. 2 hours later...working fine. So I tried pluging the ethernet cable to the laptop, worked fine again. So now i'm thinking it HAS to be the computer. So switched the built-in Airport Wifi on the iMac on and tried it out. 2 1/2 hours later...everything works great. WHAT THE HELL!? I'm thinking, since it just suddenly happened, the problem must've been triggered by some sort of update I did(which I don't remember if I did). I searched the Apple Support forums and it turns out, several people have had the same/similar problem with their Macs with no solution.............

Mac Mini :: Ethernet Loss Of Connection?

Jun 12, 2012

I have here a mac mini 4,1 that keeps losing it's Ethernet connection. If the mac is shutdown and restarted there is no connection, however, if the mac is shutdown, all the cables pulled from the back and replaced then restarted it boots and the connection is back. It was reporting a very strange mac address starting with 00 which I've never seen before and I also had difficulty connecting to it via ARD as it would show in the scanner but not connect unless specifically connected via IP address. At first I thought it might be  a system upgrade as it happen when we upgraded to 10.6.8 since then I've wiped it and installed 10.6.3 and still no luck.

Mac OS X (10.4.11)

OS X :: Share Prewired Ethernet Connection Wirelessly

Sep 20, 2010

So I have just moved into a new flat in the centre of Sheffield UK. We are in the process of sorting out the best internet connection possible and it seems to be the pre wired connections that are in the bedrooms which are at 50Mb/sec... great. BUT! We want to share this wirelessly and as the only connection is via this walled socket (See attached photo) I don't know how to do it. It is not a standard BT wall socket but instead is something that an rj45 cable can plug into. Currently I have set up a wireless network by putting an rj45 cable from the wall directly into my mac mini and have set up internet sharing however this means that if I wanted to move or turn off my computer the wireless network would be lost! I have tried already connecting a current wireless router that I have (a Zyxel p-661hw-d1) but there is no dsl connection and therefore no internet. Would I need a wireless bridge? Just so you know the ISP is called Ask4, google it and you get to the homepage.
