Apple Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter problem
Hi community.
I've just recently updated from High Sierra to Mojave and have just noticed that my Apple thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter is no longer working.
System Information shows it's connected, but it doesn't show up in System Preferences / Network. If I try to add a new interface (using the + sign in the bottom left) I am offered Thunderbolt Bridge / Thunderbolt 1 / Thunderbolt 2. Attempting to add any of these fails.
I've swapped out known good ethernet cables and restarted the network switch, but no difference.
The switch shows a connected light when the thunderbolt adapter is plugged in and this goes out when it's pulled.
Console has some interesting things to say, viz:
"/System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext - dependency 'com.apple.iokit.IOACPIFamily' not found."
"com.apple.iokit.AppleBCM5701Ethernet's dependencies failed security checks; failing."
Can you help?
Best
