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

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

Ok, so I have a problem, I have only one cable and two computers, one with the wifi antena and no option for cable and other with cable and no antena, so I guess my question here is can I share my cable computers internet to my android phone and then can my android phone tether it through wifi, so my laptop can connect to it?

I have the T-Mo version of the SM-G991U.. I can plug my Phone via the usb cable into my Asus AC68U router without an issue. It stays on 5g, mods the header to 65 without throttling... but I would prefer using the belkin USB C to ethernet adapter with PD to plug into a separate power supply to alleviate strain on the router's power and plug directly into ethernet. The issue I'm having is the phone forces it to Ethernet tethering which in turn forces the phone into a 4g slow as dirt speed, drops the 5g bar to 4g, data speeds down to 2g.... Is there a way to bypass that issue so I can use a usb to ethernet adapter without it slowing down to a crawl? work and live in an RV 9 months out of the year.
I've just added Tmo to my mobile data devices, coming from Verizon where I have the Moto Z Force, and never really had the thought of rooting except for hotspot bypass. Been close to 4 years since I had a samsung phone (note4).. Not really concerned with knox, so root is fine. I just want to get a better option for my network. I use Speedify with a 8800L version gUDP, my Z force over pda net, and now I hope to add this phone as a 3rd bonded network to my network cab.
I have such an adapter https://www.amazon.com/UGREEN-Ether...+RJ45&qid=1682626537&sprefix=,aps,1864&sr=8-3. And unfortunately, after connecting it to the phone in the hotspot and tethering settings, the Tethering via Ethernet option is greyed out. I've set hardware acceleration in developer options, have Data Saver turned off, and set the default usb connection to tethering. The phone is new and freshly updated. The adapter definitely works, tested on the previous phone (Samsung S9+), another Samsung A5 phone and even on a Mac tablet. Is it possible that Sony is picky and I need to buy a better adapter or do you know any other tricks. I read on reddit that a friend has a 2.5GbE one that framework sell, realtek adapter and it works fine for him on SONY 1 IV
if your doing this to a pc you just use a usb cable it tethers over that
on locked down devices like consoles or something idk you might be out of luck i have never tethered a phone that way always used usb or wifi hotspot
No, as I wrote earlier with the previous phone I used and it works normally. I need to connect the car with an ENET cable (BMW).
Idk there maybe an Ethernet adapter out there that works but that is a much more niche way of doing it especially to a car
Look for Ethernet adapter that people say worked on older Sony phones if any
the way i would do it is tether phone to laptop and laptop ethernet to car
I thought I would take a moment and share what I have experienced recently with my home network connection.
I got a new Internet service provider since the local one I was using had too many dropped connections and my job depends on being online. But at least the modem was in the office and I could use an Ethernet cable to connect to my desktop computer to the Internet without using WIFI. This has not been the case with my new connection. The modem was in the living room. So I had to find a way to connect my desktop computer using wifi. This meant I had to buy a stick-like device and plug it into a USB port as a sort of antenna
But I had issues with this. Sometimes the connection dropped. After a while I have resorted to having an Ethernet cable go from my living room to my office. And this is where I am now. Any thoughts? It works. And, as the expression goes, "if it is not broken, don't fix it" but maybe I should be looking ahead to a better solution.
I was thinking about a wifi booster. But, on the other hand, is there nothing better or faster than having a direct and hard wired connection?
