Changing the speed of the ethernet card

Referring to this topic I posted earlier: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=568098&tstart=0
I called my ISP, and they could only think of one thing: that there is a conflict between my MacBook's fast ethernet card and my old DSL box (that is capable of only 10 Mb/s).
So, they suggested I try to change the speed of my ethernet card to 10 Mb/s.
The problem is, how do I do it?

I think your ethernet builtin is downgrade compatible, which mean it will run on 10 mbps too without you have to changed the speed.
It is the first time I hear that we should adjust the transfer rate to lower setting.
If your ethernet card max is 10 mbps and you want to use 100 mbps, than you must change the ethernet card or use other external ethernet card, not the other way around.
Good Luck

  • How do I change the ethernet card in my emac desktop os-x?

    After getting a new modem installed, the desktop mac does not recognize the ethernet anymore (it worked fine before!). When I plug the ethernet cable into my laptop mac, the ethernet is recognized. The Century Link tech said this means the ethernet card in the desktop is bad, and that I need to purchase a new one and install it. Problem is, I know nothing about technical stuff for computers, and am wondering the exact steps I should take. Help!!

    That's prima facie evidence that guy is clueless about Macs. They're have logic board ethernet since the Late Cretaceous.
    You could have a cable issue. With some modems, you need a "cross-over" cat5 cable if you connect the modem directly to the computer (in other words, you don't use a router between the modem and the computer. Not so common now but still could be an issue.
    Check System Profiler again. From the left-hand "Contents" column, select "Network." If "Ethernet" show up as in this screen shoot from a much newer Mac:
    then your ethernet hardware is fine and the problem reverts to Century link, their modem , or a cable problem.

  • How to change the Ethernet Interface name in Solaris 10

    I have to install Oracle 10G RAC on three nodes with different ethernet cards, but the ethernet interface name must be the same which is the precondition for Oracle RAC installation.
    So I want to know how can I change the ethernet name in Solaris.
    For example, the ethernet name in the OS is "ce0", how can i change the interface name "ce0" to "e1000g0".
    bash-3.00# dladm show-dev
    ce0 link: unknown speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full
    ce1 link: unknown speed: 100 Mbps duplex: half
    ce2 link: unknown speed: 100 Mbps duplex: half
    ce3 link: unknown speed: 100 Mbps duplex: half
    ce4 link: unknown speed: 100 Mbps duplex: half
    ce5 link: unknown speed: 0 Mbps duplex: unknown
    Thanks in advance.

    You can't. The ce or e1000g refers to the driver as well as the adapter itself. The only exception I am aware of is: the ipge and e1000g which both refer to the Intel Pro 1000.I'm pretty sure I've renamed a driver in the past (and all references to it in name_to_major, path_to_inst, driver_aliases, and minor_perm) and had it function just fine after 'plumb'ing it up. However I just tested this by trying to turn a 'pcn' driver into a 'foobar' driver on a vmware box. It looks like everything works except some internal bits of the driver continue to create one file with 'pcn' in the name instead of 'foobar'. And since this is Solaris 10, the /devices filesystem is dynamic and read-only. I can't seem to force the change.
    So while this may be possible with some drivers (and maybe only on older versions of the OS), it doesn't seem to be generally possible for all drivers on Solaris 10.

  • Is it possible to change the video card of a pavilion g7-1075dx?

    So, I have an HP Pavilion g7-1075dx Notebook with Windows 7. I'm an avid gamer and wish to play the newest games. However, there's one problem thats keeping me from doing so. Alot of the newer games require newer video/graphics cards. This particular laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250. The newest games seem to require ATI Radeon HD 4850 and above. This is the only thing thats keeping me from playing games like Starcraft II on the highest settings OR in the case of Star Wars: The Old Republic, it almost keeps me from playing the game, period, due to the graphics being too much for my current card to handle, causing massive lag. I was hoping I could change the video card. Upgrade. However, i've heard that with most laptops or notebooks you can't upgrade anything other than the RAM. I'm hoping anyone on here can help me out and tell me if it is possible to get a new video card for my laptop. We don't have a desktop computer so this laptop is my only hope for a long time to play newer PC games.

    Alright, let me put this in a simpler message: Does anyone know if it is possible to change the video card currently in my laptop, the HP Pavilion g7-1075dx, for a newer and better one. ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 to ATI Radeon HD 4850 or higher.

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iPad then you could try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

    My Apple ID has been disabled due to changing the credit card, how can I enable it again?

    you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them
    If that doesn't fix it then contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Why is there NO way to change the credit card info to pay for ICloud services??

    Currently I am being asked for a 3 digit verification number to a credit card that is no longer valid.  Why is there no way to change the credit card info on ICloud services?

    You change it in iTunes. Go to the iTunes Store. In iTunes 12, click on your name in the toolbar and choose 'Account info'. In previous versions click 'Account' in 'Quick links' on the right. Sign in, and click 'Edit' next to 'Payment information'. Then you can change the card.

    Sorry to butt in again:
    But your original post(s) were not so clear.
    So if your original phone WAS locked and the LOCKED one got replaced from the APPLE store...then there is a 100% chance it IS locked.
    Sorry, but there is no such thing as a free lunch...
    Check with Apple anyways...

  • HT3702 can i get apple to change the credit card billing procedures post delivery of the 3 items that i recently ordered that had been totally & safely  delivered to me

    can i get Apple to change the credit card billing procedures ( ie have them re-bill me for one total amount rather than them currently to have billed me on a piecemeal items basis?

    First, please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are we your fellow users. iTunes Support will never respond to posts made here.
    As to your issue, confirm with your bank that they do not block access from on-line services or otherwise have restrictions on with whom a card can be used. For some company cards, such blocks can be set up. If you confirm that no such restrictions are in place, post back and we'll go from there.
    Regards.

    Spooky6243 has the solution for CC updates (it worked for me, anyway!): log in to the Apple Store on your web browser (http://http://store.apple.com/us) and then update your account inof there...credit card updates will appear on the iTunes application after making changes thru the website...I wonder why Apple never tells us this in the first place? Probably because it should work thru either application...good luck everyone!
    P.S. - And make sure your iTunes app is closed before you make changes on the website (this may help you Geordon).
