    I don’t have the actual mini on hand right now, its serving as a home server and I am on vacation. I’ll check when I get back. Btw, what version of OSX/macOS are you running on? I had no problem with Catalina and even Ventura (OpenCore).

      I said goodbye to MacOS after PTP stopped working for Android phones (Photos, Image Capture, Lightroom), and the Android File Transfer (MTP) app broke around the same Mac OS upgrade. I would assume they eventually fixed some of that, but I just don’t have any trust left in Apple after all that. My mini is running Windows 10 now, with the bootcamp drivers.

      edit: I think Catalina was the last release I had used on it before wiping it for Windows. I definitely went up to Mojave, but pretty sure I tried Catalina too.

        Ah, alright. Does gigabit work for you in windows? If it doesn’t, you can try installing Catalina and updating the Bootcamp drivers.

          Unfortunately no, hence why I suspect it was a firmware update, not just a driver bug.

          If it doesn’t, you can try installing Catalina and updating the Bootcamp drivers.

          maybe. but I wouldn’t want to deal with messing with bootloaders again if it breaks my Windows install.
