MAC_Change the order of the network ports your Mac uses for Ventura 13...

If you connect to the internet or a network in several different ways (using Wi-Fi or Ethernet, for example), you can change the order of the network connections your computer tries when you connect.

If you have multiple active connections, your computer tries the one at the top of the list first, then tries the others in descending order.

You can’t change the order of virtual private network (VPN) connections because they already take priority over non-VPN connections.

  1. On your Mac, choose Apple menu 

     > System Preferences, then click Network .

     

  2. Click the Action pop-up menu , then choose Set Service Order.

  3. Drag services into the order you want.

  4. Click OK, then click Apply to make the new settings active.
