Ethernet adapter - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Accessories

Hello guys, our tablets support connection to Internet with an ethernet cable. So I bought an (rj45) ethernet adapter(micro usb>ethernet) from eBay to have access to the 100mbps Internet connection of my university's library. Them problem is that when I try to connect it to the Internet at home, my tablet (pro 8.4) says "the usb adapter has connected" (the same with the usb otg adapter), the led of the adapter lights up, BUT it doesn't connect to the Internet. Do I have to buy the official Samsung adapter?

You shouldn't need to buy the official one.
I bought this one http://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Ethernet-Network-Chromebook-Specific/dp/B00484IEJS/ and it works when I use the stock ROM.
I connect it and the greyed out text from your screen shot, turns black.
Just a guess. You might be have MAC filtering enabled at home and could be blocking access.

When I connect my laptop with the ethernet cable it works but when I connect my tablet nothing happens...I'll check MAC filtering but I think that the problem is that my tablet doesn't support the chipset of the adapter I have bought.

I'm 99.9% sure the problem is the Ethernet adaptor. But, I'm not sure why yours would work in one location and not another.
I bought a cheap one myself, maybe something like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ethernet-RJ45-Network-Adaptor-Converter/dp/B003Q85EEA and it didn't work at all, when testiung it at home.
I'd recommend spending more money on an adaptor, ideally from a retailer that excepts returns easily, i.e. Amazon. Should you need to return it.
I'd recommend the "Plugable" adaptor.
Good luck

[Q] USB Ethernet Adapter? Can it work on the tab?

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.
R
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?

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

Can Android phone become Wireless Ethernet AP?

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.

Tab 12.2 USB OTG and Charging?

So, is there any easy way to change the Tab 12.2 and keep USB as a data connection?

That looks promising. Has anyone tried it yet? Just ordered one and will post if it works or not.
I haven't tried it but would like to know if it did.
Ordered but it's going to be a while. Didn't realise until after I placed the order that it's coming from China. Estimated delivery between June 20 and July 24. Order status says shipped already, but I've had stuff stuck in NY Customs for a few weeks on more than one occasion.
I just found this why searching for an answer to this. Suppose to work with all 6 devices!!! (8.4, 10.1, 12.2, Tab/Pro)

The power point is used to power the connected devices and doesn't power/charge the tablet.
Plus it's only powerful enough to power USB devices, it will not power 2.5 " HDD's for example.

Did you order one of these? If not, I'm curious as to where your getting the specs from. I'm hoping your wrong of course, lol. My external 2.5" HDD runs perfectly with 500ma, so if I had my 2100ma USB wall wort powering this adapter, I would assume I would get 500ma (if the power is being limited) or more out of the 2 usb ports. Unless Samsung is planning on selling an overpriced breakout box, I don't understand why they would cripple such a nice tablet with this one port for everything crap.

I ordered the 1 port version, not the 2 ports version mentioned above.
It's true the tablet can power 2.5 HDD's when connected to any/most OTG cables, but I also wanted to use it with a phone (which needs the HDD to be connected to a power source).
After I sent the 1 port version back, I looked at buying the 2 port version, but after reading the small print, I found out the tablet couldn't be powered/charged, the power point was used to power the connected devices.
Two examples of the 2 ports version I looked at:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Micro-Adapter-Cable-Galaxy-EXCITES/dp/B00J2QID16/ref=sr_1_29?ie=UTF8&qid=1402734708&sr=8-29&keywords=otg+cable

The USB Power Port only supplies extra power to the dual OTG ports. It will not charge your mobile phone or tablet.

The 2 port version, obviously will work when connecting 2 devices at once, but the power point, won't be any use, as the tablet will already be powering the devices.
That's my understanding of it.

Just got this adapter in: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Ports-Micro-USB-2-0-HUB-Charger-Apdater-Cable-OTG-PC-Laptop-Smartphone-Table-B-/161222133020
It does not charge the tablet. It does supply power to the 2 usb ports even when disconnected from the tablet. It is an inexpensive alternative to the Samsung otg to usb adapter I purchased for $19.99.
Hopefully Samsung or some other company comes out with an adapter that can charge the tablet and has usb and hdmi ports.

Nice find. I'm with 0-0-0 on the included HDMI. Just got this reply from them "nothing planned for hdmi. our current adapter will work with your 12.2 inch tablet on just usb though." Maybe if enough people contacted them stating their interest, they might develop one. Easy to send a message right from the product page requesting this.

I don't think an MHL adapter works with a regular USB port. Not 100% sure though. Just ordered a male USB to female micro USB to try, lol. Even if it doesn't work, that's one adapter I don't already own. If it works through this adapter I purchased: http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Ports-Micro-USB-2-0-HUB-Charger-Apdater-Cable-OTG-PC-Laptop-Smartphone-Table-B-/161222133020 then it should work through that Lava adapter.

here u go guys...meant to post this almost a week ago when i saw the topic. i ordered one for my tab pro 8.4 lte (should work for every variant though) & it works great...u can use hdmi (takes the regular full sized cable) with a hard drive/flash drive or large sdcard connected simultaneously while charging your device but the charger doesnt even need to be plugged up for hdmi to work. The bonus for me was that i won mine in an auction & only paid $4 for it (normally around $10 as u can see from the link which still isnt bad)...if there is any negative about this thing its all the weight/stress resting on that lil micro usb connection which means it basically needs to be placed perfectly flat. They also have a dock version which should solve that issue for around $20 which i plan to order & test at some point...hope this helps other users out with your decision

yep...this DEFINITELY works simultaneously.

Ethernet to Micro-USB 2.0 ... any suggestions

I have faced a big problem with WiFi signal last time when I used Shield in internet coffee, I thought this is a problem with coffee shop not my tablet , but ilwhen I went back home I have faced same issue with my router even I can browse the internet in my laptop but I cannot do anything with my tablet, so I am planning to use Ethernet to Micro-USB 2.0 adaptor so I can connect my tablet to the router via wire.
I looked on Amazon, but I don't know what product I have to go with ...
Any suggestions guys ...??
I use this adapter personally:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RM3KXAU
Worked right out of the box with the Shield Tablet and I haven't had any issues with it. Also fits securely into the Micro USB port, which is always a plus.
Do yourself a favour and use a USB OTG Y cable, then you can use USB stuff and charge your Tablet at the same time.
Something like: http://www.amazon.com/Micro-Cable-Player-Samsung-Galaxy/dp/B00CXAC1ZW
Then just get your preferred USB - Ethernet adapter.
Thanks 4 the info dude. Just what i needed.

I've tested and confirmed it works on my H933 on the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter, and the D-Link DUB-E100 rev C1 but nearly any asix (AX88772ALF on apple and ASIX AX88772B on the E100 rev C1) based network adapter should work.
Edit: Kingston sd100 laptop dock also works (hub and audio also work)
Hi, as this was a quick delivery I ordered one of these from Amazon (actually Souq here in Dubai)
"AmazonBasics USB 3.1 Type-C to Ethernet Adapter - Black" for about $10
plug it in, it just works
I dont have data on my phone and wifi at office is secured access, but with just this and an ethernet cable I am online

Good for you. I just ordered and have a VAVA VA-UC002 delivered (can't post a link yet). Unfortunately it doesn't work with my V30+, it doesn't recognize it as an interface, so I'll have to send it back.
I just ordered the one you mentioned from amazon, hopefully it will work.
Hi guys,
so how is it? I come to some information that in order for the ethernet to work with your phone you have to have the ethernet option in your phone network settings. I don't have ethernet in options anywhere on my LG V30 yet you guys write that it works. So does it work for you even though you also don't have the ethernet option in your settings? Thanks.
@tw9: not sure what settings you are talking about
Nothing in settings on mine either.
As above, just plug it in and it will work.
There's another thing I've done that 'just works' (mostly) when connected to an OTG cable. A wireless keyboard and mouse. My Logitech adapter thing, just plug it in via otg... boom, now your logitech mouse and keyboard work on your phone.
The only 'settings' that seem to effect this are having a 'midi' connection in dev options usb type. But basically you only find out if it will work by trying it. Pretty sure I didn't have to change the setting, it just recognized it and auto switched, can't remember, been awhile.
cheers

Kingston or kensington mate? I didn't know kingston made docks.. I know of usb, sd & ssd flash devices never heard of docks yet. Having complete solution dock for the V would be even better if it did external screens..

@tw9: not sure what settings you are talking about
Nothing in settings on mine either.
As above, just plug it in and it will work.

I don't know either, I have read it in comments section of a youtube video. Apparently it's a Samsung thing.... Ok, thank you for info, I'm going to try this
