[QUOTE="gogreen1, post: 1876094, member: 397899"] Thanks, chscag. Different ports on the router didn't work. MacInWin: I checked the port, and it look fine--no broken or bent pins, and no dust. I gave it a few shots of compressed air. Changing the cable didn't work. I use a wired connection because my iMac is 2 feet from the router. This problem isn't a crisis because wifi is working fine. I don't absolutely have to have a wired connection--I just prefer it on my iMac. I'm wondering if I should run some hardware and software diagnostics. Would that be beneficial? Could the recent Big Sur update have caused the problem? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
