MacBook Pro 13-inch 2016 w/o Touch Bar with real Escape Key, the following will netboot: Unfortunately, I don't think anyone's been able to that one yet, and the black version that Belkin sells is confirmed to not be able to netboot late 2016 MBPs.

Second, I'm less sure that the white Belkin USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter that Apple is selling (w/a 7-10 week lead time) will network boot a late 2016 MBP, but I'm hopeful because it seems to be 'blessed' by Apple. I did, however find it on a Provantage page that calls it 'Dell Adapter USB-C to Ethernet Pxe Boot 470-Abnd' which, even more interesting, is mentioned in the other thread above as confirmed not to netboot the 12' 2015 MacBook.Īre there any other adapters that are confirmed to netboot? Thanks in advance!įirst, Apple's Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter when connected to Apple's Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter I assume should work for netbooting, and multiple someones have probably already confirmed that, if anyone can point to another thread or website that states so, would be greatly appreciated! Interesting, I cannot find that part number on. In one of the above-linked threads, two people confirmed that Dell's USB-C to gigabit Ethernet adapter DBQBCBC064 can netboot a late 2016 MBP (one person said 13' w/o Touch Bar, the other did not specify what model late 2016 MBP). (For my needs, I'm not interested in whether an adapter will netboot a MacBook but if others are interested and have accurate information, feel free to list it.)

There's been a thread or two discussing this issue, but I wanted a quick reference thread listing USB-C gigabit Ethernet adapters that are confirmed to be able to network boot the late 2016 MBPs with or without the Touch Bar.
