    iPhone 15 Pro iPhone + Ethernet = 900mbit/s upload speed. Yay! =D

    Does anyone else use their iPhone with ethernet? I bought a new USB3 dongle for my M1 MBP and have used it with my iPhone 15 Pro. It highly recommend it. With it, I achieve 900mbit/s but without it I achieve a 10th of the upload speeds. The same is true for my M1 MacBook Pro. A bit of insight...

I've read tutorials of how to set it up that way on modern Macs, but I only have iOS devices, and I can't find the 'Allow Ethernet Clients' setting on the iPhone version...

    I had to switch internet service providers, which required me to get a new router as it uses different technology. If I have my old non-internet router connected to my Mac via ethernet and my new internet-providing router connected to my Mac via WiFi, how can I tell my Mac that when I want to...

    How can I set up this old router?

    (Moderators feel free to move this thread, I didn’t know where to put it) Here’s the deal: I don’t have an AirPort card for my G5. Now, the logical thing to do is to buy a used one from eBay but I don’t want to spend money. I have a few Ethernet cables, an old Apple airport router from early...

    Testing an Apple NB Ethernet Card (NuBus)

    I just came into possession to an Apple NB Ethernet card (NuBus) 820-0417-C.
