Try changing SysPref > Network : Ethernet : Advanced... (lower right) : Hardware (tab) : Configure : Automatic vs Manually to see if this causes NIC to start working again.Update to BS 11.5 went smoothly with 2/3 reboots
The Nic is working
After a wake from a (deep) sleep, NIC isn't working anymore
Reboot : NIC still isn't working
Reset Nvram : NIC still isn't working
Reboot BS 11.4 BackUp : : NIC still isn't working
Upadating Opencore 071 : : NIC still isn't working
Any clue ?
thanks in advance
EDIT
"isn't working" means :
The proper Kext is loaded
An Ip is assigned just after the boot ➧ webpage start loading
but The I renew the bail in the network pref, the NIC lose its IP
Also read Dortania OC Guide regarding post-install and sleep/power-mgmt. There are a couple of system config vectors to examine...
Here are the guide's specific points on sleep and NICs:
NICs(network Interface Controllers) are fairly easy to fix with sleep, it's mainly the following:
- Disable WakeOnLAN in the BIOS
- Most systems will enter a sleep/wake loop with this enabled
- Disable Wake for network access in macOS(SystemPreferences -> Power)
- Seems to break on a lot of hacks
My kit's sleep has always been touchy, even after following a lot of lore. For example, it has to sleep twice to stay asleep, and when it wakes up USB-C ext-drive may disappear, but also no message of forced eject. I just avoid sleep because this is a desktop and not being the most frugal with power has no discernible downside fo me. But I can relate to wanting all the systems functions to work properly.
