Setting up a modem without an ethernet connection on a computer
Netgear's setup instructions call for connecting the modem to my computer with an ethernet cable. My computer is MacBook Pro without an ethernet port. How can I get around this?

Actually, he was thinking of a USB- or Thunderbolt-to-Ethernet
adapter, like, say:
https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD463LL/A/
But with a description like "MacBook Pro", I have little idea which
ports are available on it for expansion. (The last time I touched a
MacBook Pro (MacBookPro8,1, "Early 2011"?), it had an Ethernet port.)
Yup. Typo. I should proofread before posting... Mind you, think of the possibilites!!!
