Hello, maybe this is my first post
I want to ask something about Ethernet.
Currently I'm using SM-T870
I'm using OTG to connect from Ethernet cable
On the tablet, the Ethernet was popped out
Then i cliked on that
But, when i clicked enable button, it was processing to enable, but fail
I checked and matched the configuration IP address withnthe router
With same cable & configuration IP, it was doing well when connected to laptop
Is there any kind of config that i've missed?
Thanks

Hoping to get some dev or experienced user to look at the dock ethernet. I know I've seen posts about possible fixes, but I think we are closer to what is causing the problem & need assistance in fixing it. If you look at this post (it's short- only 5 posts I believe) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185160 you can see that even with wireless turned off & the tab started on the dock, the ehternet interface is up, it draws an ip & is able to connect to the interent with the browser & other programs but there are selected apps (Market, Amazon Store, Pandrora, Crackle) that say no network connection unless the wireless is turned on. The problem appears to be that the apps are only looking at the wifi staus in Android.
To test this, I started the tab on the dock with both ethernet & wifi connected. The dock ethernet connected directly to a switch (which is connected to my router) and the wireless connected to a wireless accesspoint (not router) that is connected to the switch. Allowed both to draw IPs. Checked the interfaces & both eth0 & wan0 are up, have different IPs, different mac addresses. I then disconnect the network cable that runs from the access point to the switch removing phyical connection to the network so that the wireless connection from the tab to the access point stays up but goes nowhere. I am then able to use Pandora, check email, use Crackle, download from Market & Amazon, etc all throgh just the ethernet port.
I've seen sample code on the net for testing the android Connection Status and the examples are checking the wifi only. Does anyone know of a way or can a dev modify our roms so that andrid not only checks for wifi, but also the eth0 inteface?
Sharing 3G/4G Internet connection on Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP connected with Android mobile phone via WiFi HOTSPOT or USB LAN or 3G/4G USB modem datacard , and then use the wireless Wifi router as a WiFi access point for the other devices.
1) Setting up the router
Router WAN will not be connected to any modem, *** NOTHING ON ROUTER WAN PORT (NO INTERNET VIA PPPoE DSL , STATIC OR DYNAMIC IPs) but it will made to act as Access Point for "sharing" the shared internet connection on Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP.
First, one needs to access the wireless Wifi router's configuration settings, usually one need to connect the Wifi router, and then access its setup page either over WiFi network, or by plugging it to desktop or laptop in 1 of its 4 LAN ports. setup page is accessible by entering the router's IP address 192.168.1.1 on IE address bar or some other browser like Firefox etc. however consider your router's manual to see how to get to the settings. Ideally, resetting the wireless Wifi router and then following its setup guide would best way start off.
Once on Wireless Wifi router's settings do the following:
a) Enable the Wifi connection. It should be enabled by default, but some routers require you to manually enable it.
b) Secure your network. Under security options, there should be a way for you to specify a password for your new wireless network. Here you will have multiple options, probably WEP, WPA and WPA2. Set up either WEP or WPA/WPA2 security. WPA2 would be best if your router supports it. Consider having a look at the router's manual for that.
c) Disable DHCP. Look for a setting that says something about automatic addressing (or "DHCP"). Which is enabled by default, disable it – ****this is most important!
d) Connect the router to Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP. The LAN port of Desktop should be connected to 1 out of router's 4 LAN ports via RJ45 cable. Wireless Wifi router will have one WAN internet Modem port at the back designated only for modems, as mentioned above do not use connect anything to this port so-called WAN port.
Once above steps are done Wireless Wifi router is all set.
2) Enable connection sharing
• Now if you have 3G/4G dongle data card then insert it into USB port of Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP
Go to "Network Connections"; locate your “3G modem” connection
Right click and select "Properties"
Select "Advanced"
Enable "Internet Connection Sharing"
One should be able to share it over Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP LAN interface connected to wireless router or share it over Wifi card connected to Wireless router.
• If you have 3G/4G Internet connection on Android mobile phone connected USB port of Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP
Go to "Network Connections"; locate "Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device" connection
Right click and select "Properties"
Select "Advanced"
Enable "Internet Connection Sharing"
One should be able to share it over Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP LAN interface connected to wireless router or share it over Wifi card connected to Wireless router.
• If you have 3G/4G Internet connection on Android mobile phone connected via Android mobile HOTSPOT to Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP
Go to "Network Connections", locate Wifi adapter e.g. "Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter" connection connected to Android mobile HOTSPOT
Right click and select "Properties"
Select "Advanced"
Enable "Internet Connection Sharing"
One should be able to shared it over Computer Desktop/PC/NOTEBOOK/LAPTOP LAN interface connected to wireless router or if you two wifi wireless adapter card then share it over 2nd Wifi card connected to Wireless router.
Once done you are all set to rock the network by connecting other Desktops/PCs/NOTEBOOKs/LAPTOPs/Android/windows/Apple/blackberry’s phones and other devices to Wifi wireless router Access point that you had set up. Your devices should acquire an IP address and be able to connect to the internet with any issues. Windows will lease out more than just one address when using windows ICS!
I am trying to configure the ethernet connection for remix. I am on a desktop booting from a USB. I try to add an account and I get a notification that the network is not connected, I went to settings, my ethernet is set to automatic and is enabled. No connection! any ideas?
Thanks
Greetings all.
Quick question. Is there any way to connect android device (using USB Ethernet adapter + OTG) via Ethernet cable to another device that does not provide IPs via DHCP (static IP)?
To elaborate, I'll soon be in the situation where I'll have no access to the internet and the only thing I'll have is my android device (Pixel C) and my HTPC (running OpenELEC). I would like to connect them via ethernet cable and browse SMB share from my tablet (as well as move things around). I know that the best way would be connecting directly to HTPC via USB and use file manager in Kodi/OpenElec but I would like to be able to move files around without interrupting HTPCs usage. Also, I know that I could possibly buy cheap network router with 2 ports and get IP assigned via DHCP from it but if that's possible I would like to connect those two directly.
*** UPDATE ****
I was able to manually set IP on HTPC as well as on Android device using ifconfig eth0 [IP] netmask [NETMASK]. I'm able to ping and ssh into the HTPC machine, however, it's only doable with superuser permissions. Is there any way to set static IP for eth0 by default (eg /etc/network/interfaces in linux/unix) on android or at least make ifconfig change available for regular user?

Pixel C Ethernet Adapter - No DHCP
Hello,
I'm also experiencing issues with DHCP not being available.
What I would like to do is establish point-to-point communication between two(2) devices - a tablet
and an embedded device. The tablet is a Pixel C running Marshmallow 6.0.1. I have the devices
physically connected by USB and they will use this USB connection to communicate using
standard web services.
In the configuration, the embedded device is acting as the "server" but unfortunately does not
support DHCP. I need to create a static IP address and disable DHCP on the tablet side.
I was able to establish an ethernet connection with LAN(DHCP). However, unlike previous versions
of Android, the Pixel C does not provide the capability to disable DHCP and modify ethernet
settings.
My question is, is there a procedure to create a static IP address and also disable DHCP on
the Pixel C(Marshmallow 6.0.1)? If not, can we restore the settings that were available on
previous versions of Android?

I have an ethernet to USB-C adapter, which I have connected to the phone, but I am not able to connect the Mate 20 to internet via cable.
Any particular trick to enable this?
You can do it, working out how to add screenshots from phone.
Here you go. I added the screenshots off the phone with cellular data and wifi disabled and USB ethernet active.
Enable developer options if not already, enter the settings for that and scroll down to "Select USB Configuration" and press that for the options. You're looking for the RNDIS (USB Ethernet) setting.
Mine works. Updating apps via Google Play on it right now and it's fast.
Also downloaded the entire map of the UK for Here Maps and it worked well.
Fantastic, working as we speak! Thank you
How about the other way around - use Mate's mobile connection to provide internet to a small router, via an USB typeC ethernet adaptor?
