Sep 25, 2016 10:16 AM in response to gary996by Bob Timmons,You would do this by using a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter.....a valuable device to have for situations like this when a direct wired connection is desired. The device will also help if you are transferring or copying files from the Mac to another hard drive.....since a wired connection is always preferable to wireless in terms of speed and reliability.
