After upgrading to Yosemite, my ethernet word connection quit working. Error says "Either the cable for Ethernet is not plugged in or the device at the other end is not responding." This happened once before after one of the dot updates to Mavericks. A subsequent update caused it to start working again. Any ideas?
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
I've also just installed Yosemite on a Mid 2010 Macbook Pro 13".
My Ethernet port, cable worked fine a few hours ago but are now not working under Yosemite.
They still work when I boot into a linux live distribution from USB on the same laptop.
I've tried all suggestions above, nothing worked.
I have the Apple USB Ethernet adapter for another computer and it is working on the new Yosemite system. Wifi is also working fine.
I found a solution:
1. Open Network Preferences
2. In the Locations drop down box, select "Edit Locations..."
3. Create a new location
4. Remove the ethernet device, click apply
- note, the first time I tried this it didn't work, I think I missed clicking apply
5. Add a new ethernet device, click apply
Wait. it's takes a second or two, but you should get a message that the cable is connected, and second or two later an IP address.
For completeness here is some of my System Information under >Hardware>Ethernet Cards
Broadcom 5764-B0:
Name: ethernet
Type: Ethernet Controller
Bus: PCI
Vendor ID: 0x14e4
Device ID: 0x1684
Kext name: AppleBCM5701Ethernet.kext
Firmware version: 5764m-v3.38, 0x56cdb6d5
Location: /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworkingFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleBCM570 1Ethernet.kext
Version: 10.1.2b3
Thanks, but it don't help for me. I tried to do it twice. But Ethernet has not appeared
alxmo:This worked for me on a 13" MacBookAir3,2 late 2010.
Thanks!
For those with multiple locations defined, I found I had to apply the same process to each.
-jd.
Results:
After performing the SMC reset, nothing changed. After starting up in Safe Mode, the ethernet controller appeared to be operating. Upon the subsequent reboot and login, it was again no longer functioning.
That is usually an indication 3rd party software might be the problem. Are you running Little Snitch? If so, try turning it off.
Try running this program and then copy and paste the output in a reply. The program was created by Etresoft, a frequent contributor. Please use copy and paste as screen shots can be hard to read.
Eric Root,
Have I remove the programs one by one and check the operation of the Ethernet after a reboot? Or is there another way to find a program that turns off the Ethernet?
One by one is about the only way I know. If you run the program I posted a link for, someone might be able to identify a known problem program.
I made it easier 🙂: I install clean Yosemite OS X. But the problem remains the same. Ethernet works good in safe mode, but doesn't work in usual mode.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

In other topic I find a solution, which helped to me.
Go to HD -> Library -> Preferences
Rename "SystemConfiguration" to "SystemConfiguration.OLD"
Restart System
Done!
Thanks to the people who posted this! I hope, It's permanent fix.
After another restart issue appear again 😟
alxmo's solution worked for me on my late 2012 Mac Mini and my late 2010 MBP - thank you so much!

Re: Ethernet quit working after Yosemite upgradein response to rahotz
I've also just installed Yosemite on a Mid 2010 Macbook Pro 13".
My Ethernet port, cable worked fine a few hours ago but are now not working under Yosemite.
They still work when I boot into a linux live distribution from USB on the same laptop.
I've tried all suggestions above, nothing worked.
I have the Apple USB Ethernet adapter for another computer and it is working on the new Yosemite system. Wifi is also working fine.
I found a solution:
1. Open Network Preferences
2. In the Locations drop down box, select "Edit Locations..."
3. Create a new location
4. Remove the ethernet device, click apply
- note, the first time I tried this it didn't work, I think I missed clicking apply
5. Add a new ethernet device, click apply
Wait. it's takes a second or two, but you should get a message that the cable is connected, and second or two later an IP address.
For completeness here is some of my System Information under >Hardware>Ethernet Cards

Same problem here.
iMac 27" Late 2013
I've have internet issues, but it works for extended periods, then rapidly drops and regains internet. When it happens it's about 1x/sec, repeated fro extended periods. Main reason I noticed is hardware growler.
This is two repeats, but I've come back to the computer I can have over 1000 messages. At 5 messages or so per incident that's a 100+ cycles at time.

This typically happens when I'm not at the computer. The few times I've seen it in Airport utility it looks like a failure between my airport router and the cable modem. But 3 other computers, all Mavericks and WIFI don't seem to be affected other than slow internet.
Other observations. Noticed it was assigning a new IPv6 address each time. I looked at my settings and I didn't have IPv6 configured. Tests on IPv6 websites confirmed IPv6 wasn't configured correctly. I did set IPv6 set up and was able to connect to the test sites correctly. Didn't seem to make a different. Disabled again.
I do run Little Snitch. Turned that off and on again. Didn't seem to fix (or cause when turned back on).
I also use a VPN. Again, turning off didn't seem to affect issues.
Right now it hasn't repeated for over 24 hours. Crossing fingers.
