Any advice will be appreciated, thanking you. But I use the Mac Mini as a media center and the WiFi can be unreliable so I would really like to sort out this ethernet issue. Crazy Optimum.įortunately, I have the WiFi working so it isn't the be all end all. Optimum have said there is no issue with the router but they have come to this conclusion without troubleshooting it. I am in process of doing a MacOS update to see if that has become an issue. My Mac mini (Late 2012) is running macOS 10.13.6. In Terminal I have tried to ping and my IP address to no avail (ping: cannot resolve unknown host / Request timeout for icmp_seq 0) > Click > Name it "New Location" > Click "Done" > Click "Apply System Preferences > Network > Click the lock to authenticate > Location: > Edit Locations. Renewing DHCP license (should I be provided with new IP? If so, it doesn't seem to do it) Also, the ethernet cable connector on the Router displays an active green LED.Ĭlearing browser history and restarting Mac (something Optimum suggested but why I know not) There seems to be a working ethernet connection as I use my Mini headless and connect to it via the app Screens Connect, I am still able to access it when WiFi is disabled. Since doing this, WiFi has continued to work without issue but I have been unable to obtain an internet connection via ethernet on the Mini. The problems started when I had to move the location of our router to another room. My Mac Mini was connected to it via Ethernet whereas all other devices are wireless and until yesterday we have had no further issues. Mac Mini (Late 2012) cannot connect to the internet via ethernet Last week we were having issues with our Optimum provided router and we had it replaced with a Sagemcom 5260CV.
