The Cable For Usb 10/100/1000 Lan Is Connected But Your Computer Does Not Have An Ip Address. Upgrade Itself To

My husband also has a computer hardwired, which is not a Mac.

I can only get connectivity with my Mac via wireless (192.168.X.XXX).

Again, none of this happened until we rebootedreset the router and modem.

In any event, try renewing your IP address (Advanced tab in Network Settings) and let us know what IP it gets.

When I hit renew everything goes blank for a few and then populates again.with the same IP address.if that helps.

If you look at your Network Settings, it should be green and say connected.

Check the settings on your router to be certain that the DHCP server is up and running.

Watching the network settings, I saw it say Not connected (red) then Connected with self-assigned IP address but no internet (yellow).

So isnt there some connectivity if I can see these changes in status As for the it maybe being a DHCP issue, wouldnt all devices on the network have the same issue (my husband can connect just fine) Thanks, again.

To answer your other question, the cable comes in and plugs directly into the box (so I dont think theres any other equipment).

The ethernet cables for both computers are plugged directly into the modem (not the wireless router).

It was time to update, so I let my iMac Retina upgrade itself to Big Sur and the issue still remained.

Having successfully tested the router gateway, I knew it had to be the iMac hardware or the OS.

I backed up my important files, used the recovery utilities to wipe my SSD, made a bootable USB drive with Big Sur onboard and did the deed.
