How to create a private LAN for Mac hardware devices

<p>Apple has long had robust networking support in macOS, allowing many different kinds of network interfaces to be connected at once, including multiples of the same kind (like ethernet), network adapters plugging into to interfaces (like ethernet over Thunderbolt and ethernet over USB-C), and multiple simultaneous internet connections.</p><p>But Macworld reader Steven can’t get a particular installation to work that he needs for speed for his music recording studio. He has a 200Mbps internet connection, and the Mac he’s using for editing connects directly to the broadband connection. That part works fine.</p><p>But he has two other devices he wants to connect via ethernet to his Mac to get the throughput he needs.

He’s tried a lot of combinations and different ethernet adapters, and nothing’s worked. He wonders how to proceed.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3251784/networking/how-to-create-a-private-lan-for-mac-hardware-devices.html#jump">To read this article in full, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
