OSX 10.9 & ethernet port not working

Before I upgraded to OSX Mav 10.9 on my MBP 13" mid-2010, my ethernet port worked fine. Yesterday I plugged in using the ethernet for the first time since the upgrade and it doesn't work. The Network app says "unplugged" even though it clearly is. The router doesn't show a green light either when connected to any port. I know the cable and router are fine (both checked using a PC).
Am I the only one or is this a more common issue?
If so, is there a fix?

let me reiterate. 27 ' iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo just updated to 10.6.6 uses AirPort to access the internet. Set up to share it's internet connection via ethernet with PPC Dual 2.3 G5 running 10.5.8. Up until the 10.6.6 update things were fine. After updating the iMac's OS, the PPC lost it's internet connection. On the PPC's network System Prefs, the built in ethernet is connected and green. The iMac is in the finder under Shared. On the iMac, the PPC is in the finder under Shared and in Network settings the ethernet connection has a self-assigned IP with a yellow light. I have reset and rebooted all settings and devises on the network with no resolve.

Mountain Lion Mac Mini Server Ethernet Port Not Working

I have a Mac Mini Server and once I upgraded to Mountain Lion Server the Ethernet port is unresponsive. It worked before upgrading. Is there something with Mountain Lion Server that is causing the Ethernet port not to work properly?

Built-in ethernet port not working in unibody Mac Mini

Hi,
So ever since I acquired this new mac mini I haven't been able to get it to recognize any devices connected via ethernet. I obviously checked the cables and all is good there. I tried connecting it to another mac, and while the other machine was detecting a device (the mac mini) at the other end of the cable, the mac mini kept saying that the cable is unplugged or the device off.
After several days of having the issue I decided to remove the ethernet service from the network preference pane to set it up again but to my surprise, the built-in ethernet option was not available (I only got airport, firewire, bluetooth DUN, VPN, PPPoE and 6 to 4). At this point I tried removing the networkinterfaces.plist file form the system configuration folder in the system preferences folder to no avail. I then tried to zap the PRAM, NVRAM, reset the SMU, SMC and all that kind of things to get the port recognized by the system but no luck.
When I look at the system profile I get these weird results in Ethernet Cards:
pci14e4,4353:
Type: Other Network Controller
Bus: PCI
Vendor ID: 0x14e4
Device ID: 0x4353
Subsystem Vendor ID: 0x106b
Subsystem ID: 0x0093
Revision ID: 0x0001

Kext name: AppleAirPortBrcm43224.kext
Location: /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAirPortBrcm 43224.kext
Version: 425.16.2
Comparing it to other macs I have It should read "ethernet" rather than that strange pci name on top and the kext name shouldn't read airport but something like AppleIntel and in location it shouldn't direct to the IO80211Family.kext package but rather to the IONetworkingFamily.kext.
So I popped in the system install DVD and fired up System profiler and at that point I didn't even get an "ethernet cards" option in the left side pane. So this is leading me to believe that the hardware is not being recognized at all, so maybe it's damaged. I did replace the HDD with a bigger one and change the RAM modules to bigger ones but I don't think I could have damaged the hardware in these processes, also I don't see how this would affect the ethernet port as it's integrated to Motherboard and didn't messed with it at all (I was very careful, to say the least!).
The last thing to do is reinstalling the system but I don't think it'll help (after seeing that the ethernet port is not even being detected by the install OS) but I need to offload all the data from my internal disk and at the moment I don't have an spare drive to do it.
So, what's the recommendation? A field trip to an Apple Store? Closest one is like 3,000 km from where I am right now, so...
Well, thanks for any pointers, suggestions and help in general.

I do not have any answers for you. Yes it appears to be reading what should be an ethernet card as an AirPort card. Have you played around with trying to install another version of Mac OS X other than the version that shipped with the Mac mini? Apple has long told us that we should not install a version of Mac OS X that was older than the shipping version. With the Mid 2010 Mac mini, the Restore DVD has the only version of Snow Leopard that will work with this Mac mini's specific hardware. At least until Apple releases 10.6.5. If you have installed other versions of Mac OS X, then erasing the HDD and installing the OS from the Restore DVD(s) that shipped with the mini may get you back to the point you need to be.
Unfortunately I think that you voided your Apple Warranty when you installed the different HDD. That was always a question in the past when folks wanted to open the former version of Mac minis and upgrade the RAM. But with the 2009 models folks started reporting here in the Apple Discussions that Apple was informing them that they had voided their warranty by opening their Mac mini. This new model made the RAM user upgradable, but the User Manual specifically states on page 43, 54 and 61 that there are no user serviceable parts in the Mid 2010 Mac mini except the memory.

Ethernet Port not working 50% of the time?

On my new GD55 P67 50% of the time I start my computer the Ethernet port does not work. I know the cable is good because I have tried several cables. It seems to have problems right after I installed SP1 for windows 7. Is their a known problem with the Ethernet port on this motherboard?

By "start my computer" do you mean start from a complete shutdown, start from S1/S3 sleep or start from hibernation?
The next time you start the computer and your Ethernet port doesn't work, open up a Command Prompt window and type "ipconfig /all" (without the quotes). Copy and paste the results displayed for the Ethernet port you are having a problem with (or just copy it all if you are not sure which section belongs to the port in question).

HP 7210 All-In-One Ethernet Port not working

The green Ethernet port light is not lighting and the computer can no longer find the printer. I believe it may have been damaged by a power surge during a lightning storm. I have checked the Ethernet cable that connects it and it is working fine with my laptop so it is not the cable coming into the printer. The printer works fine with the USB cable and all other printing, faxing and copying functions are working fine. Is it possible to repair or replace the Ethernet port?
I have also tried setting the IP address back to default and manually setting the IP address. The port is just not recognizing the cable.

Jim B - First, thank you so much for helping me.
I was able to get the green port light to light-up by performing the steps 1 - 5 you recommended. Also the amber data light is on but not blinking. In fact now they both stay lit even when the cable is removed. When I use the same cable with my laptop the green light comes on and the amber light blinks.
Unforntunately, the printer is still not finding the IP address. I tried the function to "Restore the Network Defaults" and I also tried to manually set the IP Address. When I print the network settings it indicates the status is "Offline" and I have the following changes:

Ethernet Port not working

I had bought a new HP ENVY 15-AE009TX just a week back and now suddenly my ethernet connection is not working. It seems the problem is with the port because the 2 lights keep disappearing and start after a few seconds i thought they were supposed to be on constantly one white light and another blinking. I dunnow what else could be the problem the drivers seem to be fine. The troubleshooter in windows says to attach the ethernet cable when i already have it inserted. Any help is appreciated.

Which port are you using?
The second (upper) NIC is only activated once the first (lower) NIC is.
If you're trying to use the upper NIC without first using the lower NIC, that could be your problem.
Once you've verified that, check the switch settings and make sure the port is configured for auto-negotiation. By default the Mac will use auto-negotiation and it's possible that you won't get a link if the switch on the other end is not set the same (e.g. it's set for 100-full).
Of course, if you've changed the Mac's settings (in Network preferences -> Ethernet) to something other than 'Auto', then you should make sure the switch is set the same.

Ethernet Port Not Working After 10.6.6 Upgrade

Hello! Since upgrading to 10.6.6, I have lost my Ethernet port connectivity. AirPort is working fine.
I have done the following:
-checked ethernet cable
-used System Preferences/Network to check connection and try to create a new one
-used Diagnostic button
-zapped PRAM
-reset SMC
-repaired my disk permissions
-installed the 10.6.6 combo update
-booted in Safe Mode and then restarting
Is anyone aware of an incompatibility with 10.6.6 and the Yukon adapter?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Ethernet port not working after installing Leopard

All fine when in 10.4.8, after installing 10.5 it no longer works.
Says cable is unplugged, checked the cable on other devices and the router and cant see any problems on system profiler.
Any ideas ?

Cat6 cables are not required or beneficial for most home situations. The purpose of Cat 6 cables is to be able to work around a electronically "noisy" area, or to pinch out a little bit more throughput in a Gigabit network.
If you change a cable to Cat6 it will still work at the Cat5 or 5e standard if any of your other cables are not Cat6.
I'm running GB ethernet using hundreds of feet of Cat5e wiring into several rooms. No problems with Leopard.

Z87 G45 Ethernet Ports Not Work

After simply turning my router off and on again, it's showing no ethernet cable are connected.
I've tried restarting my PC several times, I plugged in the cable to my laptop which had no trouble, so that leads me to believe the mobo is the cause.
Secondly, I don't believe it's a driver/BIOS issue since it was working perfectly fine prior to turning off my router, this is really frustrating since I had the exact same issue when initially setting up my PC.

Cat 5e can do 1Gb fine, he doesn't need a Cat 6.
Does the LED blink and/or are on in the back? There should be an orange LED constantly on.
If it is then try this:
http://www.webxpert.ro/andrei/2009/03/02/how-to-reset-windows-xp-winsock-and-tcpip-stack-entries/
If that doesn't work, then try re-installing the killer drivers, if that doesn't work try a format.
If that doesn't work or no LED on in the back you might have to RMA the board. I remember my Gigabyte G35 mobo on which the ethernet just died on me a couple of days later after I bought it. Lucky it was within the 30 days so I just got an exchange at my local store.

Ethernet port stops working on location change

I seem to have a problem with my ethernet port not working after a specific location change...
I have three locations I used frequently. Let's call them:
1) HomeWireless
2) WorkWireless (used when I'm in meetings)
3) WorkEthernet (used when I'm at my desk)
My general practice is to change locations just before putting my MacBook Pro to sleep, and then it is happily ready for the desired network when it is awoken.
I'm not sure what this change in behavior coincided with, but as of ~1 month ago, I am finding that going from WorkWireless to WorkEthernet, my ethernet port appears to be completely dead and I have to reboot the computer to reactivate it (yes, I've checked the cable itself and the wall port at they're OK). I've tried a couple ways of disabling & re-enabling it in software, but I don't get the impression anything actually resets this interface - suggestions are welcome as perhaps I just didn't try the right thing. I couldn't find anything quite the same as "networksetup -setairportpower" for the ethernet port.
Oddly, this is not an issue with going from HomeWireless to WorkEthernet. Both HomeWirelss and WorkWireless have the ethernet interface deactivated in the Network pref pane, and perhaps the only notable difference between HomeWirelss and WorkWireless is that I use a static IP on the former and dynamic on the latter.
Does anyone have an idea why this could be happening, or have any suggestions for something to check (e.g. some difference to look for between HomeWireless and WorkWireless that might hint at the issue), or at the very least a means of resstarting the ethernet port without rebooting.
Thanks for any help,
-Gene

I'm still experiencing this issue. Anyone else? Any help on either understanding/fixing the underlying issue, or with resetting the Ethernet port to deal with it?

If you are searching the registry, check for the "Senforce" string. It should be at HKLM\Software\Senforce
Try running the install program for the ZSC with the following command line:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1"
If you've specified an uninstall password, try this one instead:
setup.exe /V"STUNINSTALL=1 STUIP=password"" (please note the double quote at the end)
Let me know if that helped you.

WiFi or Ethernet do not work!

I Have a Macbook and the Wi Fi or Ethernet will not work. I renew DHCP lease and the internet works for 10 seconds than I have to renew it again. I have 2 more Macs and they work fine. I have two routers and this computer has the same problem with both. Is there a way to solve this?
I have notice that a lot of people have had this problem has anyone resolved this issue.
So far this is what I have tryed:
Macintosh> Library> Preferences> SystemConfiguration (deleting all documents in this last folder).
-reseting router
-Macbook Software update
-Flush DNS cache using Terminal (dscacheutil -flushcache)
-holding Command+Option+P+R during restart until hearing another chime
-airport on/off
-removed airport and added again from Network Preferences
-Network>Advanced (deleted Preferred Networks and also from Keychains)

I had to convert the official ISO before it would boot happily as a USB on my used Air I've just got, I followed the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/UE … B_from_ISO including the suggestion below to use rEFInd instead of gummiboot and it worked for me.

Hi,
What about if you try to install drivers from your product's page?
http://uk.msi.com/support/mb/Z97-GAMING-5.html#down-driver
And when exactly it starts to fail to work? Did you try to have OS just installed, restart it and see if it works then? Are you able to determine which driver installation causes USBs to stop working?
thank you
i just remove USB3 controller driver and work
