[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1879799, member: 46727"] I have never heard of an ethernet port going bad on an iMac or any Mac for that matter. I'm certainly not saying that it can't happen, but that it is a rare occurrence. Usually it's a CAT 5 or RJ 45, RJ 11 problem. And most times it has to do with the way the network is setup. I hope for your sake that a logic board swap out fixes the problem. Changing out the logic board on an iMac is a major job requiring complete disassembly and removal of the display. Also take note that any logic board that you get will likely be one that's refurbished, hopefully Apple refurbished. Keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
