Question about Apple MacBook Air - 2024
Which adapter do I need to continue to access the Internet on this MacBook Air with an Ethernet cable? And which adapter do I use to connect the two USB 2.0 ports of the (very) old MacBook to the new Thunderbolt ports? Thank you in advance!

To access the Internet with the MacBook Air 2024 via Ethernet cable, you will need a USB-C to Ethernet adapter as the device does not have an Ethernet port. One recommended adapter is the Belkin USB-C to 2.5Gb Ethernet Adapter, which supports high speeds and connects directly to the Thunderbolt/USB-C ports of the MacBook Air.
To connect the two USB 2.0 ports of an older MacBook to the new Thunderbolt ports of the MacBook Air, you need a USB-A to USB-C adapter. Such adapters enable the connection of older USB 2.0 devices to the modern USB-C/Thunderbolt ports. Alternatively, you can also use a USB-C hub with USB-A ports, which offers additional connections.
To summarise:
- For Ethernet: USB-C to Ethernet adapter such as the Belkin USB-C to 2.5Gb Ethernet Adapter.
- For USB 2.0 from the old MacBook: USB-A to USB-C adapter or USB-C hub with USB-A ports.
