| After I upgraded macOS, the Twin10G, Presto 10GbE, or other Sonnet PCIe card that requires a driver is not loading. | Dec-22-19 |
| If you have already installed a Sonnet Driver and it is not loading:
1) Restart (forces Mac OS to scan for unloaded drivers).
2) Go to System Preferences...Security & Privacy panel...General tab. You will see a message, "System software from developer "Sonnet Technologies" was blocked from loading." Click Allow. Note that you must have a hard-wired mouse/trackpad to click allow. If you are connecting via Remote Access, then macOS prevents you from clicking Allow.
3) Restart. |

| In macOS 10.11 and 10.12, SMB signing is turned on by default. This is no problem for gigabit ethernet, but SMB Signing severely limits the performance of 10 gigabit ethernet. Apple has published a tech note how to turn off SMB signing: "Turn off packet signing for SMB 2 and SMB 3 connections". This note requires the use of the terminal application and a number of terminal commands, so some familiarity with those tools is required.
In macOS 10.13.6+, Apple has turned off SMB signing by default. |
