I’ve been utilizing USB Web Connection from my Macbook Professional for some years, pretty reliably. We depend upon it since we’re a Wifi free home. After updating to macos 12.7.3 Monterey, each iPhones disconnected. After taking numerous steps, I’ve managed to get a brief connection (perhaps an hour). Steps taken beneath:
I deleted the contents of </Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration>, apart from ‘com.apple.Boot.plist’, because it was a locked file. Some article really helpful deleting the contents of this folder to reset community settings. Doing this resets the Community pane in Settings to defaults.
Resetted SMC & NVRAM. Resetted community settings in iPhones. Inflicting a ‘belief’ display screen which I authorised.
This ‘System Info’ pane exhibits the issue. Should not there be just one iPhone lively service with one IP (1 iPhone related)?? The IP deal with vary 169.254.x.x may imply there’s a downside, being not allotted by a DHCP server. After taking all of the above steps, this nonetheless comes again!
I might actually admire some assist with this (ideally from an Apple software program engineer). Are the ghost iPhone’s inflicting the issue? This hasn’t occurred earlier than after updating.
Thankyou in your time.
