Apple Vision Pro is now available in the U.S.

Mac Studio no internet connection [using cat 6e], but WiFi does work

Just got this Mac Studio, finally had time to waste with migration one to one.

Don't do it a waste of time. Use a cloned copy of startup drive.

To migrate from.


Anyway not happy for this new way of wasting data transfer..


So WiFi does works, but no Ethernet internet connection

Mac Studio

10Gb Ethernet:

"energy efficient" drops power to the 10Gb Ethernet chip to save energy. It is NOT compatible with Top Speed. In the hardware pane, set Manual, then under Duplex, set: “Full-Duplex, Flow Control” NOT “Full-Duplex, Flow Control, power efficient” to disable power saving and boost top speed.


The Mac Studio has a 10Gb Ethernet port. This 10G Ethernet port is NOT compatible with speeds slower than ONE-Gigabit Ethernet. It is also NOT compatible with cables that have fewer than all four pairs available for data.


If you have some fancy equipment at the other end of the cable, it is possible it is trying to make a 10Gb connection. A 10Gb (or 5Gb or 2.5Gb) connection is only stable when cables are excellent and fairly short (like Category-6 rated cables under 100 feet). If either of those are not true, or you have you added patch cables that are not Category-6 rated, you could be seeing it connect at a faster-than-Gigabit speed, then error out and disconnect.


The setting [√] ABV/AEV mode selected on the hardware pane of advanced Wi-Fi Ethernet OR in your Router may constrain the connection in unexpected ways that could limit overall performance. The feature is used ONLY for prioritizing “live” camera video streams over Ethernet”.

Well tonight I found out why the Ethernet was so screwy all this time.


My Netgear  RAX50 router. [ This device is blocked by Access Control in the router.]

So under the Advanced and security settings, there it was disabled the Ethernet setting.


Now Allowed, working fine with WiFi turned off


Thank you all for your help with this issue.

You have camped on the end of a 33-reply long discussion, starting to talk about something slightly different than what has already been discussed here. Some Readers skip such long discussions entirely.


To get your issuers the attention they deserve, please start a NEW discussion with the details of your Mac, your MacOS, and your Ethernet. be sure to give it a Title that will attract the Readers who might have something to add.


EDIT: I see your new discussion nearby. Great!
