I want to connect my new MacBook Pro to my network via CAT6 cable. CAT6 plug fit into my old MBPro, but not new one. Will this work for me?

I am using this product to connect my macbook pro (late 2012) to the typical connecting wire I use with my router ...I sorry I don't know what a cat6 is etc. but internet pix of cat6 look like my "typical connecting wire". thunderbolt to ethernet connector works fine for me and my macbook pro.

Yes. I have my MacBookPro attached attached to the router via cable and the router attached to the Modem for internet service

It will connect a cat5 ethernet to a bnc connecton. I am guessing the cat5 is what you are calling an ip connection.

I have the 2 port one in my Early 2008 macpro. Just plugged it into the PCI slot and left the power connection empty. Works great.

Hi Kara, I too have an early 2011 Macbook Pro and an HDTV. This cable worked perfectly for me.

I use it for my Macbook pro, as I selected Mac cable to connect with it, It works perfectly with me. I can transfer a lot of data in a short time. I know that this device is compatible with Mac and Windows but I prefer it with Mac because it has Time Machine Software to backup your data for double protection of data loss, this feature available only for Mac and supported to all Apple products. For further information contact their support team at www.g-technology.com. Thanks for contacting me and I hope this helped you. Regards.

Mine works just fine. Call them with the mac address and see. It's the same one that I had from Comcast. There are new and faster ones now.

Same connector.. some have had problems with newer cat 6, something about the wire being thicker and difficult to push through. I have had no problems using them on cat 6.. I will say that before you insert cable you should trim the wire ends diagonally (cut wire on a angle, short-long) makes thicker wire easier to insert and prevent crossover...

You can, but you might also need an adapter to connect to your Mac if it does not have an HDMI out port. I think the new Retina MacBookPro's have an HDMI but I'm not certain. Other Macs (recent ones) have a Thunderbolt port, also known as an MDP. Older Macs have different video out port. In any event, if yours does not have the HDMI video out, you just need to figure out which port you hsve and then find that type of adapter to adapt to HDMI. you can easily get an adapter at Amazon or even a local Radio Shack carries them. Enjoy your HD and your Mac!!

yes. you just plug into an available USB port and now you have an ethernet port ! my ethernet ports were damaged by lightening so I use this adapter now and it works fine on both iMac and MacBook Pro.

No. For my new Mac, I had to buy a 3.0 to thunderbolt cable. You'll have to do the same, 3.0 to 2.0, to accommodate your system.

Have you guys tried changing the wireless channel? I was having this problem where I was getting poor signal and random disconnects on my MacBook pro when my router was set on channel 11. Ever since I changed I was able to connect and browse w/o disconnects. None of my other devices had this problem though...

There is a cable that is supposed to hook from the unit and another cable to hook to your macbook pro. This cable is almost impossible to find. Some sites may say the cable is available, but if you speak to them in person the cable is not available. The actual part number for the cable is in my review. Also will not work on iphone or ipad with lightening connector. Product has been discontinued so is a bit outdated. Would be a great product if I could connect, which I can't so I sent it back. Hope this helps.

There are adapters for Ethernet via Thunderbolt or USB on your MacBook. Around $30

This adapter is only for a firewire port, either 400 or 800. It doesn't appear that the MacBook Pro with retina display has a firewire port. You will need to purchase the Thunderbolt to firewire adapter first, then depending on if you have a cable that is firewire 400 or firewire 800 you may need the adapter. I would purchase the Thunderbolt to Firewire dongle first, then try your firewire cable. If it doesn't fit, then purchase the Firewire 400 to Firewire 800. Apple has the Thunderbolt to Firewire dongle, I just bought one myself. It is about $30.00.

If you're Mac Pro has a thunderbolt port it will work. That is what this cable was made to do

I also have macbook pro running the latest OS X it works, the network works, the usb ports work I also believe when I first got it the monitor port worked. It is a little quirky, like when you plug in drives into the port they run even when the MBP is not connected. and you will not get full resolution on the monitor like you have on the MBP.
