Enter /Library/Preferences/SystemConfigurationģ.

unplug the Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter and reboot.Ģ. I didn't have an success with using the GUI tools to do this, i edited a plist file manually. What i found is that the easiest way to make sure your system detects it as a new device is to clear out the definition for the old one and let it re-detect. This post is for those that see it, but cannot get the device to show up (auto detect) in the Network Preferences part of System Preferences. If you don't see it, you may have a thunderbolt bus issue or your adapter could be bad. If you see it, your half way there to resolution. Indented under it, while the adapter is plugged in, you should see 'Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet adapter'.And on the right you should see 'Thunderbolt Bus' Towards the bottom of the hardware list click on Thunderbolt.Attach your thunderbolt Ethernet adapter.Click your apple menu, select about this mac, click system report.Its alot of reading but thats only because i wanted to provide someone less familiar with Mac configuration, some more exacting steps.įirst, let me point out that making sure your Thunderbolt shows up as a device in your system report is important. I needed a way to fix this adapter 'without erasing' all my network configurations, vpn connections etc. Most of the time the adapter would either never show up, or show up but never connect. I manually tried adding the adapter back using Network preferences, and i had 3 of them to choose, but adding any one of them did not help.

The Macbook pro i use could see that the hardware was there (described in the steps below). I played with the network locations with no results. It would not come back when i reinserted it. My issue, i was having issue with my Thunderbolt so i deleted it from the network preferences pane. Some info for anyone still having this issue and how i resolved my issue.
