    10GBe speed issues on macOs Sierra with Myricom 10G-PCIE-8C-T

    We are running 4 MacPro's 5.1 on a NAS via 10GBe Myricom 10G-PCIE-8C-T network adapter. After upgrading to macOs Sierra there was a maximum speed of 90 MB/s available. Myricom told us, it's a driver problem. But that's simply not true. We wrote a script which increases the speed to 1000 MB/s...

    Will a US blacklisted iPhone work in Canada?

    I live in Canada. I saw an iPhone 6s locked to sprint which is blacklisted for 200$ (a fraction of a non blacklisted price). Will this phone work in Canada if I carrier unlock it. In other words, does the sprint blacklist affect it in Canada?

    Strange network issues

    I'm having odd networking issues on my late 2013 Macbook Pro. I'm running El Capitan. The problem is that the internet can be very sluggish. For example, it will sometimes fail to send an email (using Thunderbird). The odd thing is that I don't have the problem in a Windows 10 VM running under...

    Using iMac as a WIFI Access Point on Existing Network

    Hello everyone, I currently have a wireless network in my home with two Airport Extreme Time Capsules. The first router I will call the Master as it controls the DHCP. The second I'll call the Slave as it is bridged and only supports the Master by increasing the Wifi coverage and supplying...

    Since having the ATV4 and updating it to the first ATV4 update I've noticed wireless connection issues. The ATV will forget the network connection but when I go into the Network Connections no wireless APs show up. It's a really weird issue and I figured it would be fixed after updating to the...

    Had been authenticating to the workplace Active Directory server with my Mac (latest Pro with el Cap installed). Worked splendidly! Now when I use AD login, the system is FUBAR. Dock doesn't load, apps won't launch. I can login as a local user and everything is perfect. I deleted the local...

    I had to resort to torrent to download El Capitan

    What is wrong with the OS X App Store? I bought a Early 2015 MacBook Pro in November. Working great with Yosemite, but I of course wanted the latest and greatest. Trying to download it over Wi-Fi at my brothers and at an Internet Café was not working. I invested in a Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter...

    Network accounts and software licenses

    I'm toying with the idea of using a network login on my work Mac. It would authenticate to the corporate server via Active Directory. Setup and everything went well and seems straightforward - but when I launch an app, it asks for a serial number / license even through they have all been setup...
