[QUOTE="mathead, post: 1650900, member: 348157"] Hi. I have an old 2007 Macbook running OS X 10.7.5. The ethernet port is fried and I don't want to use WiFi, so I use a cheap USB to Ethernet adapter. Now, everytime I plug it in, it creates a new, additional service in my network prefs, numbered "USB to Ethernet adaptor 1, 2, 3, 4..." (yes, it says [I]adaptor[/I]. Don't judge me). Does anyone have an idea why this is or how to resolve this without having to purchase a different [I]adaptor[/I]? [/QUOTE]
