Hi.
I'm trying to connect an old Macbook Pro (2014 I think) to the internet via a wired connection but can't find the right adapter. Could anyone help me please? I'm in the UK.
Thank you.
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15
You have no extra cables for your computer? What you need is a Thunderbolt to ethernet cable. Is this because WIFI doesn't work? Anyway Amazon sells them as does the Apple Store.

The OP did not specify a "Retina" display. So the specs I posted were correct for the question. The image posted was the retina display computer. So eventually we got to the correct answer. Shows the importance od providing the correct Mac version/year/etc.
Then it is not a mid 2012 Macbook Pro.
From the specs :

The mid 2012 MacBook Pro has an Ethernet port. You don't need an adapter.

Well, that's weird because it definitely doesn't.
Thank you. It's actually a mid 2012 model but the adapter you pointed me too is compatible.
True.
