[QUOTE="mlm352, post: 1650929, member: 348162"] Thanks Slydude I'm using a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012) Yosemite 10.10.1 The crossover cable was useful in creating a wired connection between my Mac and my PC, with the purpose of transferring large files quickly. After reading your post I tried using a standard ethernet cable (non-crossover), and that allowed me to transfer files too. The issue with each type of cable is that, when I plug it in to the PC, and then I plug the other end into the Mac, the Mac's wifi stops working. I want the wifi on the Mac to work at the same time as the cable being plugged in (so that I don't have to keep plugging/unplugging the cable). [/QUOTE]
