Has anyone tried a USB to RJ45 LAN adapter. I'm wondering if I can connect in hotels using one of these as some hotels only offer cable internet in your room.
Im waiting for both the Usb rj45 ethernet adapter and the Prime at the moment, so i dont know yet, but on HC they work on the OG transformer with root

May need Linux LKMs and/or root in some or all cases.

Out of the box
Hi,
I have a Sitecom LN-029 USB-LAN adaptor (quite old already) and it works out of the box on my TR101 with ICS ... 17.

Now that we have our usb adaptor up and running,
does anyone think a usb to ethernet adaptor would work?
I'm going on a trip recently and it would be awesome if the tab could hook up to the internet access in the motel room ( they dont offer wireless)
These usb-ethernet adaptors only cost $20 so it would make the already useful tab even more worth its price!
Simple answer, no. It doesn't work like that

I don't think the drivers will be available, I'm fairly certain you'll be able to pick up a portable wireless access point for around the same price which you could plug into the Ethernet at the hotel.

maybe, if some one can put the driver in to tab ;p
Drivers shouldn't be a problem.
Init scripts, DHCP, etc could be - the userland stack probably has no concept of wired Ethernet connections.
I don't have a portable USB Ethernet adapter so couldn't really look into this. Easier to just get a small AP.
What about for places that don't allow any wireless AP? I am deployed, and all I have is my xoom, no laptop, nothing else -- went to area that did have wireless for the first bit and had zero problems. We just moved to an area that does not allow wireless of any kind (i.e., Airport Express wireless AP router, etc), mainly for security reasons. So I don't have a laptop to work through any connections. I have an Ethernet cable sticking out of the wall staring at my Xoom. Is there any type of adaptor that I can get to allow me to be hard-wired without the use of wireless?
I can't use any type of tethering (no cell phone coverage). So I'm hoping there is some sort of mini-usb adaptor to USB to modem to ethernet...
I am looking into this as well. I do service on moving heads (lamps) and they have a web server built in for diagnostics. I would love to just use my tablet to connect directly to them.
My adapter is an Asix AX88772B. It worked before on my china tablet on 3.2. but after I did an ICS upgrade on it, it stopped working.But that tablet sucked in all possible ways !

This is done on the EEPad. Can this be done on the Galaxy series?

www.bobjgear.com has what you need for the Xoom.

even i was searching the web for a solution ..found that for xoom and acer tabs...a kernel code was written through adb shell and yes a wifi only tab could connect to internet through the dongles....wish some dev takes this us and experiments with our tab
Need a USB ethernet solution for samsung Note 10.1

I also am in a location that doesn't allow any wireless AP or travel routers. Once I attached the travel router, it gets knocked off the network. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1. I would love to find a solution to connecting an usb ethernet adaptor to it.
I have tried the bobjgear usb ethernet adapter on my note 10.1, no joy. I also have another one (pluggable) on a different asix chip which needs more power to get going. I don't think the tab can supply enough for the led lights on it. Have ordered 5v injectors. So yet to see. Although I may well be barking up wrong tree as the note may not have drivers at all. I read somewhere that note may have some compatibility but mut be correct chip. So I will keep on testing until exhausted.
One the plus side bobjgear's website does list tabs that work out of the box with his adapter

Just got this adapter deliver from Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003M8I0R...iveASIN=B003M8I0RM&adid=1VQXRP85656ACXRE25ZW&
Plugged it in, message popped up "Ethernet Port is detected"
Plugged my network cable in, and another message said that Ethernet DHCP was connected.
Done - no drivers, no setup or anything. Of course, this probably needs the new update from yesterday, but if you need a cheap and simple ethernet option, this is it!
I got one from monoprice for around $7. Worked OK before the update. Works great now.

What speed can Prime handle? Is the max around 30mbps up and down or what can the network card handle when using cable?
Same as WIFI max or can it go faster when using cable?

Hi,
I have a TV Box that requires ethernet connection, located where there's no ethernet socket around.
Initially, I thought of buying a wireless ethernet dongle (such as this www. amazon. com/dp/B005OIB714/ref=asc_df_B005OIB7142059191?smid=A3U3JJYGD7YYL1&tag=nextagusmp0359831-20&linkCode=asn&creative=395105&creativeASIN=B005OIB714 ) which connects to the internet via wifi, and provides an ethernet male cable to stick into the TV box.
But here's a thought - would it be possible to use my SGS2 instead? Can it be used as a Wifi client, and is there a micro B to ethernet-male adapter or cable?
Tried googling for a while but got flooded with too much confusing data.
Thanks!
Your phone can be a wireless hotspot, if that what you want.

I don't think that's what he's asking. Sounds like he wants to connect the phone to wifi, then use some kind of adapter to piggyback the network connection out to an RJ45 wired port to the other device.

Dude, that thing is only $25. Just get it. I don't think what you are attempting will work, and even if it would, it would (theoretically) require an additional adapter for micro usb to rj 45 anyways, which would cost some amount of money, thus defeating what appears to be your purpose of saving money.
THANKS!
Yep -what I wanted was to use the SGS2 instead of a WiFi2Ethernet dongle.
I sometimes enjoy extending the use of the phone (such as using the SGS2 while on vacation in Ireland, to transfer files from my camcorder to an HDD via an OTG cable and a powered USB hub). However - in this case all I wanted was to save buying the dongle as I will rarely use it.
Too expensive, too complicated - Got it! thanks! Will buy a dongle.
If you really like recycling devices and have an old router lying around, you could try setting up a wireless bridge rather than getting a dongle.
Hello all, I'm trying to use a usb-c to rj45 lan adapter to connect directly instead of wireless for XZP but so far the one use (b elkin) does not work or I just don't know how to set it up in Android N. Any suggestion on one that would work would be great. thx:fingers-crossed:
Did you make sure that the adapter u got was compatible with android? I haven't come across one that is
Did you have any joy with getting the adapter to work ?
Regards,
Kevin
I bought another adapter from Amazon - Smays 3 Port 3.0 Hub and USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor target Ultrabook, Tablet, IPC, and Motherboard Applications (Realtek RTL8153 Controller, Black), unfortunately it does the same thing. Christmas lights on the LAN but no connectivity. Other post suggest that Sony turn off certain capability that could make USB-C work the way it suppose to for LAN and HDMI. I think I would have gone with the Note 8 if not for the 4K and Tim the Tool Man like for chrome color. Arr ARrrr arr
Is there even any kind of USB-C hub or adapter that works with this phone?

Sony hasn't enabled a single ethernet device in the kernel config, of course nothing will work on the stock rom. But hardware wise, as long as you can plug it to the phone everything should work as long as you can get load modules.

Hi guys,
I wonder if it would be possible to connect my 8.4 inch m5 via ethernet. As far as I know there should be support for usb to ethernet cables in Android 6.1 (not sure with the version should be around 6) and higher.
Thanmk you for your time.
As far as I have seen in the forum people tried it with hubs but weren't successful. Same story as the hdmi output :/
Yes you can, I've tried usb Ethernet adapter connected with type-c OTG and the tablet happily connected to the wired network (WiFi off).
That's nice to hear. Thanks
I've tried usb Ethernet adapter connected with adapter USB <-> microUSB <-> typeC, did not work.
WoW!
Now it's working with Total Commander!
