Love this idea. Why can’t we do ambitious infrastructure?

What’s makes this worse is problems with WiFi on MacBooks. Apple seems to have nailed it in iPhones - why has there been problems with MacBook WiFi for so long. Maybe we need the N1 chip.
A MacBook with a gigabit or faster Ethernet port and WiFi 7 (presumably via N1) would probably be an almost instant buy for me.
Having gone down something of a rabbit hole about Apple silicon Mac compatibility (incompatibility) with some USB Ethernet adapters, I can’t help wishing MacBooks still had built in Ethernet ports.
The promise of USB C being one port that does everything just doesn’t seem to be true. I don’t want to have to hunt down drivers and then battle through Apple’s security stuff to just connect a network cable at full speed.
Interestingly M1 Pro MacBook Pro works fine. MacBook Air (M3 and M4) don’t
