[Solved] Can't get Network to work on i219-v

[CHALRWSS]

I hello all I'm quite confused and frustrated I've been trying to get my net work drives to work for hours and I've tried 3 so far, AppleIntel1000 and another one(named after a cat) that supports the v2 of my chip set. The way I go about installing is through kext utilities and I've tried unibeast and neither seem to work. I've tried older and newer versions of the kext with no luck, am I just missing a step ?

Remove any previous failed attempts from /System/Library/Extensions.

Open Finder and browse to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ then delete these two files :

• NetworkInterfaces.plist
• preferences.plist

Download this kext (click Download Now) and put it on your desktop.
Download and run KextBeast selecting /Library/Extensions as the location.

In Terminal :

sudo kextcache -i /

Press return, type your password (it will not show on screen), press return again and when the command has completed restart.

Thank you for the replay but unfortunately I still have no internet installed also I notice that I did not have the networkinterface.plist file when I removed the preference.plist, is there a log file I can locate to give further insite.

Make sure that your Ethernet interface is not disabled in your BIOS settings.
Also, if possible test it with a different operating system such as Windows for example.

I assume not because my dual boot into windows allows internet

We only know what you tell us.
If you fail to mention something then as far as we are concerned it didn't happen.

The procedure detailed in Post #2 is tried and tested, if it fails for you then I have no further ideas.

Oh, wait.
You have fully disabled SIP haven't you ?

Post output of Terminal :

sudo kextcache -i /
