Yes.

  • Apple TV (4th gen) faster with 5 GHz WiFi with the ethernet cable

    When my Apple TV is connected to my network via 5 GHz WiFi it gives me a faster speed (about 120 Mbps) connections it makes when I plugged it on my network (about 45 Mbps) ethernet cable.  Why is this?  I thought that the ethernet would give me the fastest connection possible.

    The ethernet port on all ATVS (including the 4th generation) is only 100 Mbit/s. The actual speed depends on the quality of your network as the routers, switches and cables components and of course it depends on the length of your ethernet cable and if it is damaged in any way (folded or crushed). And finally, that depends on how fast you have actually measured, on your local network speed, or speed on your WAN.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 - no USB or Ethernet cable to connect the printer to the computer?

    I'm just trying to set up my new printer Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless.  I got to the step of installing the software, but there seems to be no cable supplied to connect the printer to my computer.

    I can't currently connect via radio that I expect a new wireless router be delivered.  Is this the way onlt connection other than buying a separate USB or Ethernet cable?

    Help, please.

    Ethernet and USB cables are not usually provided with most of the printers that you need to choose a cable with a length of favourabel to you. You can go to a hardware/computer store and buy a USB A-to-B cable. I'll post a picture of the end of cable just to clear any confusion.

  • How can Hello I just transfer program from a laptop to a desktop iMac computer using an Ethernet cable

    Hello

    How can I transfer a single program and its content from a laptop computer to an iMac using an Ethernet cable

    You can network or target mode a mac computer

    OS X Lion mountain: connect to shared computers and servers for files on a network

    Share files between two computers with target - Apple Support disk mode

    However, to transfer a program is not the user data (music, photos, etc.), you must follow the directions of developers and license agreements. Some programs need to be seen to withdraw their authorization, some don't, but most require a clean install to write the necessary components in the correct places, otherwise if you are 'slide' from one place to another, you can easily inherent problems of this method.

    What is a substitute for the migration assistant? I tried in vain for three hours to migrate files from a macbook pro to each other so that even if connected with the ethernet cable the computers never see each other.

    You can connect otherwise?  USB or FireWire or love at first sight?  You can connect both machines and start the one you want to transfer to target disk mode.  If your other machine is up and running with an account on it and you just want to move files, you can simply drag and drop the FRO the machine mounted TDM, or you can use the migration wizard.

    Or, if the other machine still starts and runs, you can start both computers and connect to the same wifi network and share the hard drive like machines on the network.  Access them in the finder on the new machine files and drag-and - drop, or use the wizard migration, on wifi.

  • I want to thank my wifi in another part of the House with an Airport Extreme. But I want to not be connected to the modem main via ethernet cable is it possible?

    I want to thank my wifi in another part of the House with an Airport Extreme. But I want to not be connected to the modem main via ethernet cable is it possible?

    I put in place already to extend the wifi of my modem still connected to the modem via ethernet cable.

    Now I want to be considered on the floor and use it to extend the wifi without ethernet cable

    The AirPort Extreme can extend only wireless signal from another router from Apple, so if you want to take the AirPort Extreme on the floor and extend wireless signal, you will need another airport connected to your modem by Ethernet cable router to produce the wireless signal that will extend the extreme on the floor.

    Another way of saying the same thing would be to say that if you want to extend wireless using a router from Apple, you'll need two of them do... because AirPort Extreme is not compatible with a third-party modem or modem/router for this purpose.

  • MB Pro restarts randomly with the ethernet cable is plugged

    I recently bought a thunderbolt reduction - Ethernet [1] and it works very well. The problem is that when it is plugged in, my MacBook Pro (13', 2015, i5, 8 GB) gets very hot. This isn't a problem, but the next thing is really annoying.

    Whenever I'm not load, but the ethernet cable is connected, and MacBook goes into sleep mode, the system turns off instead. Thus, for example, when I don't have the power cable and if go for 5 minutes, the system automatically sets the mode 'sleep'. When I come back, it is turned off, and when I hit the power button, a black screen with the Apple logo and a text in several languages, saying that the system restarted because of a problem. After that, MacBook starts normally.

    The same phenomenon occurs:

    • When the power cable is not connected and I close the screen
    • When the power cable is not connected and I SLEEP manually the MacBook
    • When the screen is closed and I plug the power or the ethernet cable

    I use OS X 10.11.

    Hello james9285,

    You can also check out the link below on the Site of Hp Support:

    http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-topics/network-Internet-support/cant-connect-Internet.html

    Here are a few basic things that you should check if you get flashing link lights what activity see the:

    1.) check that you have found an IP address after you have connected the ethernet cable:

    (Enter the command line and run ipconfig)

    2.) while in the command ping 127.0.0.1 loopback line

    (This will verify that your card is able to communicate)

    3.) check that the driver does not work correctly:
    (Right click "Computer", click on manage and check on the network tab, if you see the driver Ethernet)

    If the wireless connects successfully as directed by your computer to perform the following acts:

    1.) Ping a site command line:

    (Enter the command line and ping google.com)

    If these steps are followed and you managed a communication & there is no problem of driver, that contacts your ISP (Internet Service Provider) and they will be able to provide support remotely.

    (Please contact me if you have more questions, I'm not an employee of HP, but I am willing to help!)

    Hello

    the wireless connection should not have an effect on the connection of the cable, but for sorting, disable the WIFI network.
    As you say that the cable is correct, it may be the network ports on the laptop or the router. Try to connect the laptop to another network and another computer to your router. You should then see where is the problem.

    Good bye

  • Re: NB200 - automatic plug-and-play for Ethernet cable

    Do you know why I don't have automatic plug-and-play, when I connect to internet ethernet cable on my NB200?

    Normally, nothing is plug-and-play. If you want an Internet connection via Ethernet cable, you must configure this port. This means you need to set a static IP or DHCP.

  • HP 6500 E709a network main AIO: printer Ethernet cable to the router

    This should be a simple question. My home/office network has a router Belkin Wireless 600n. I'm not sure how to respond to the installation of the software asking how the printer is connected to the computer. I have both wireless and Ethernet wired computers on this network. I am trying to run the installation on each computer software. I'm only given two choices, USB or wireless. I think that there should be a third choice; Ethernet cable. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

    Hey @billytec,

    I understand that you run into a problem when running the network installation on your windows computer to your HP Officejet 6500 all-in-One Printer. I want to help you with this today.

    Choose the wireless network option shouldn't cause problems during the installation of your printer. It can always be detected on your network and should install without any problems at all. When it comes to your computers or wireless, which makes no difference to the way in which they communicate with your wired printer. The only requirement is that they are all on the same network.

    To make sure that you run the correct installation program, just click here. Once the site opens, select the download button at the top left. Once the download is complete, do execute the instructions on the screen to install your printer.

    Please let me know if this clears up any confusion. I wish you good luck!
