| My system crashes, freezes, or fails to connect when I talk to a storage device on the network | May-13-22 |
| Go to System Preferences...Network.
Select the 10GbE port and click "Advanced..."
Select the Hardware tab.
If Jumbo packets are on, turn them off, click OK and click Apply.
If that fixes the problem, then stay at Standard (1500), or check the Jumbo packet setting of every switch and device in the path.
If that doesn't fix the problem, check Flow Control.
If Flow Control is off, turn it on; or if it is on, turn it off. Not all devices support flow control, or the absence of flow control. |

| Can I connect a Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 Edition Adapter to a Thunderbolt 2 Mac? | May-13-22 |
| Thunderbolt 2 does not have enough power to directly connect a Thunderbolt 3 bus-powered device like the Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 adapter. However, you can connect the Solo10G if you have an intermediate Thunderbolt 3 device in the chain that is wall-powered, for example the Sonnet Echo 11 Dock.
Thunderbolt 2 Mac----Apple TB 3 (USB-C) to TB 2 Adapter----Wall-powered Thunderbolt 3 Device----Solo10G Thunderbolt 3 Edition
Note that the Apple Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter is reversible and will support a Thunderbolt 2 Mac and a Thunderbolt 3 device (as well as a Thunderbolt 3 Mac and a Thunderbolt 2 device). |
