Hi everyone, I'm literally going crazy!
I can't get out of it, I'll explain my configuration.
Whenever I go to play in a restaurant with my macbook pro (ver 12.6.1) I connect to the local wifi network to surf the internet. Then I connect my simple dmx artnet device (SmartShow NetDMX II) to my mac. The problem is that ... if there is wifi on, the dmx doesn't send data so I can't use my lights, so I have to turn off the wifi and not be able to surf the internet. Where am I wrong? How can I do both at the same time?
Thanks in advance

You hardwired Artnet should have a fixed IP-address in another IP range than your wifi connection.
Try to ping the device to be sure.
