How to get Mac to give Ethernet connection priority? [duplicate]
I have the following issues / question. I use WIFI and Ethernet through each other like most people probably.
Certain things like ripping a blu ray I want to do through the Ethernet connection so that is when I plug it on.
However, I first have to turn WIFI off to "force" the mac to choose to route the data through the Ethernet connection.
In system settings under network / priorities I have the proper order, so Thunderbolt Ethernet above WIFI.
Any idea how I can make the Mac use the Ethernet cable without turning off the WIFI? THANKS!
According to Apple Support:
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Network.
- Click the Action pop-up menu , then choose Set Service Order.
- Drag a service, such as Ethernet, to the top of the list.
- Click OK, then click Apply to make the new settings active.
