Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter not connecting

I have spent the last two weeks scanning every single forum and every response in regards to this very question above and none have worked.
Issue:
I am running a MBA mid 2012 on OS X 10.8.3. It is a new device. I have tried to update all thunderbolt drivers and get the regular "not supported or not compatible" because all firmware/software is up to date . I changed location settings in network adapter but nothing happens. I have done an SMC and PRAM reset but again nothing. I can see the port recognises my thunderbolt adapter (Apple standard) and shows it to be connected. I am using the same ethernet cable / settings on my standard desktop PC so i know the routing and cables are fine.
I see so many issues with the thunderbolt connection online so clearly something is a miss. I have VMWare fusion 5 installed if that helps also.
I would go to a genius bar with this but im stuck on an island in the middle of the atlantic ocean so impossible!
Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter not connecting on MacBook Pro Retina

    I recently purchased the Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adapter to connect to my 13in MacBook Pro Retina Late 2012 (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) to a hardwired internet connection for faster downloads. However, when I connect the ethernet cord to the adapter nothing happens and only the wifi connection is identified.
    Ethernet or Thunderbolt Ethernet are not an option in the System Preference > Network. Also, either connection are options when trying to add a network interface ( System Preferences > Network > + > Interface).
    I have tried several fixes like Resetting PRAM or Removing Network Preferences File. The NetworkInferences.plist and Preferences.plist files did get recreated after reboot, but only the WIFI interface shows up.

    I am sure the Thunderbolt ports are functional since I am able to connect my display using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter
    Could I have corrupted the Network Preference File or is could the Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adapter damaged?
    Please help.

    I had this problem, too, and an Apple Support call and Genius Bar visit later, I had the answer: if you're using Network Locations that preexist your Thunderbolt display, it doesn't seem to auto-add the possibility of "Display Ethernet" to your available network ports. To solve this, either:
    Create a new Location in your Network system preferences. It will finally detect the "Display Ethernet" and use it. It'll slowly change from disconnected to No IP to green-is-for-go.
    or
    Fix an existing Location by clicking the + to add a port and choosing Display Ethernet. It'll slowly change from disconnected to No IP to green-is-for-go.

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet bridge not recognised

    I have an original Apple Thunderbolt Ethernet bridge (TEB) for my brand new MBP 13" retina Mid 2014 edition and I am running Yosemite 10.10.2. I connect to the internet via ethernet regularly to play online video games. I recently plugged in my TEB and found that it wasn't connecting me to the internet. I checked network preferences and tried to run diagnostics but in the network preferences it says there is nothing plugged into the Thunderbolt port. However, when I go to system information and under the hardware tab I selected Thunderbolt, with the TEB connected there is a little drop down menu named Thunderbolt bus and under it it says Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. If I remove the TEB, this drop down option is not there, which gives me the impression that the computer is recognising the TEB, but somehow something is wrong with the software that isn't allowing me to connect.
    Further information before any of you suggest something simple because I've tried all the simple solutions
    I went to the apple store with my TEB and asked them to check if it was working, they confirmed that there is nothing wrong.
    I've also used a brand new ethernet cable, one that I know is working to connect to the modem. And obviously my internet is working because otherwise I wouldnt be writing this.
    So if anyone knows what I can do to fix this problem please help!

  • Thunderbolt ethernet adapter causing buzz within MBP.

    I've noticed something very weird lately with my retina MBP. Whenever I'm loading largish (> 1mb images) files in the browser, my laptop emits a noise that sounds like there's a tiny little buzzer somewhere inside the laptop. It lasts as long as the file is loading onto the page or downloading in the background. I've been able to reduce the problem down to only occurring when I'm plugged in using a thunderbolt ethernet adapter. On power, off power, connected to external display or not, the noise is present. I would really like to stay connected to ethernet, but I have no idea where to begin fixing this very weird problem.

    I bought a new adapter but this one doesn't work too! That's €29 well spent
    So anybody got any clue what to do? It shows up in the system info, but there is no thunderbolt ethernet interface available in network settings...

  • Is there a driver for the thunderbolt ethernet adapter on a 2010 Macbook Air?

  • Ethernet port not connected - airport working - not able to get online

    Hi, new poster. Never had an issue with our beloved iMac 20 inch Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz - 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. It's old but it serves us, we hope it's not shot. Power goes out a lot here, system has surge protection but no battery backup. System just goes down without being shutdown properly. We used wired Ethernet. No the problem. Last time power just went out, the system would not boot up. I searched around and found out to use the DVD to verify/repair disk. It finally did and system now boots up. However, it says the Ethernet is not connected. It is. I tried three different cables that worked with our laptop and two different routers, all that happens is the light on the router flashed on and off. While on the network status in sys pref displays no cable detected vs. Cable connected but not connected to internet. Assumed the port was shot. OK, turned on the airport. Connects, gets DHCP assigned IP address and/or accepts static IP but when we launch Safari says it can't connect. Tried Opera browser, same thing. Sophos AV also can't connect for updates. All these network configurations had worked previously until this last power outage. Searched for help, as I don't want to waste peoples time. Found out about these things that follow: SMC RESET - PRAM RESET - Delete connection and recreate same - Network Diagnostics - Hardware Diagnostics - Verify & Repair disk ••• Nothing makes it connect to Internet. Network diagnostics gets to end but will not get connected. Hardware diagnostics regular and extended report no issues. We think the logic board is shot given everything we tried and symptoms with system. Can anyone suggest something we did not try of the things we did listed above? Please help us save this thing from the recycling center. Thanks in advance. Sorry for the long post, wanted to be thorough with what's going on and what we have already tried and done thanks to searching these forums for the last week.

    Yikes, sounds like big problems!
    Have you blown the dust out lately?

  • Windows 7 64bit on bootcamp doesn't recognize the thunderbolt-ethernet adapter

    in my new macbook pro retina I've a problem on window 7 64bit (bootcamp 4.0). the OS doesn't recognize the thunderbolt-ethernet adapter..

    The thunderbolt ethernet adapter works without issue on my rMBP with Windows 7. Did you download and install the Windows Support software? Did you refer to the Windows help regarding networking? Did you try a different adapter? What happens when you try to use Ethernet networking?

  • Thunderbolt  ethernet adapter

    Hi,
    Using the wired thunderbolt ethernet adapter my network works for about a minute after the adapter is plugged in then stops working with the cable showing as unplugged in network settings.  The only way to reconnect is to pull the adapter and re-insert it.
    As far as I can tell all software and firmware is up to date.
    Is this likely to be a faulty adapter or am I missing some other settings?
    thanks,
    Andy

  • "Ethernet Cable Not Connected" Huh?

    I have a dual 10.3 450 G4 that I rarely connect to the internet. I kept getting the wrong date and time so I changed the battery. Now the monitor display keeps resetting to the wrong size and I keep getting the message the "Ethernet Cable not connected even though if I connect the cable to my laptop it works fine. I even tried restarting in OS 9, I repaired permissions still nothing. The system profiler tells me that the the extension is not loading. I can't find where to dump the preferences.
    Any help?
    Thanks

  • Thunderbolt/Ethernet Adapter AVB/IEEE1588 Support.

    Hi,
    I have just seen that the Ethernet port has been removed from the MacBook Pro (retina). The Ethernet port was interestting for AVB (audio-video-bridging) development. Now that it's gone, do you know if the Thunderbolt/Ethernet Adapter supports AVB and IEEE1588?
    Thanks!

    Yes, it will work.
    All Apple Macs with a Thunderbolt port are AVB capable.

    I have contacted Vienna Instruments and it seem that the problem can be on Apple side: the Thunderbolt - Ethernet adapter.
    Any information or help to how to solve this problem?
    Thanks!

    Hi xavibcn,
    I am also a composer, and I'm trying to use Vienna Ensemble Pro over a network with a Thunderbold to Ethernet adapter. Have you been able to get it to work since you posted this? Would love to hear if you found a work-around.
    Thanks!

  • Dual Ethernet will not connect if set to share Single IP address

    The subject says it all. My trusty old Dual Ethernet will not connect if set to share Single IP address.
    I cannot get anything but a self assigned IP address with it set to share a single IP address.
    Before about Tuesday of last week I had connected to it a Mac mini, iMac, Dell Desktop, Dell Laptop, and PS3 all working fine. I think Comcast or Apple updated their system or Airport software and now the old dual Ethernet will not share a single IP address.

    So far as I know, there has been no recent change in Apple's software affecting the Snow (a/k/a Dual Ethernet) base station. About 2-1/2 weeks ago, Apple distributed an update to AirPort software for Intel Macs running Tiger, but it would not have affected the base station.
    Your topic implies that when the Snow is not set to share a single IP address (i.e., presumably, when "Distribute IP addresses" is unchecked in the Network pane of AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow), one of the computers is connecting to the Internet through the base station. I also imagine that the self assigned IP address you mention is the IP address of that computer, rather than of the base station, and that that computer obtains an IP address from Comcast when the Snow is not distributing IP addresses.
    Assuming that that computer is connecting wirelessly, then whatever settings that computer is using for TCP/IP and PPPoE in the AirPort part of System Preferences, while the computer connects to the Internet, should be the ones used for the base station, in the Internet pane of AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow. (Most likely, it is simply "Using DHCP.") The IP address obtained from Comcast should be received by the base station, when it is set to distribute IP addresses in the Network pane, and the IP address should show up in the Internet pane. (When the Snow is distributing IP addresses, it has two IP addresses itself, a WAN IP address obtained from Comcast and a LAN IP address, 10.0.1.1, visible only to devices in your network.)
    Even when the settings are correct, the Snow might not be able to obtain an IP address if your cable modem remembers the computer, which had been receiving the IP address previously. You'll probably need to shut down the computers and unplug power to the base station and cable modem. After waiting 5 minutes, restore power to the modem, then after another 5 minutes, restore power to the base station, then after another 5 minutes, start up a computer.
