Just what the title says- Illustrator works fine on our office ethernet (working in the office), but super, super slow using wifi (working from home). So slow in fact, I can't use it at all. Beach ball city.
NOTE: I am using the same laptop in both instances. All the other apps work FINE- EXCEPT Illustrator!
Obviously it has something to do with our wifi, and with Illustrator. But how can I remedy it?
yes.
hmmm. I didn't know that. I was going to try the ethernet connection but my (newish) MacBook Pro does not have an ethernet slot! Or am I being stupid?
I tried turning off the synching toggle, no difference. If that's what you mean.
Not sure what you mean there.... Can I even access CC without internet???
PS thank you for trying to help me.
Like the Auxillary port for new iPhones... Ethernet access requires a thunderbolt to ethernet adapter...
>>This thing... Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter - Apple (UK) <<
Yes, you should be able to still use Illustrator without the internet as it is installed on your computer... (it will need a connection every 30 days (I think?) to establish that your license key is still valid).
And essentially [EDIT] the reason you shouldn't work over WiFi etc. (it's not terrible but) - I would never recommend it because it means you may/may not be able to save, access the file, the file may become corrupted due to a drop in signal when saving.. and additional linked assets etc may slow the computer and your workflow down...
But this is just my opinion I should point out.
If your working from within the office where the files are stored its less of a problem.
