Im basically trying to use the wifi on my phone to connect a wired device to the internet via micro usb to usb female/usb male to etheternet female chain
It's not a smart device
On my tethering options it does not recognise any usb =(
Is this possible??
I used a tplink 3020 to do that

Anyone know whether there are any USB Ethernet drivers in the kernel, so that I can connect a USB wired ethernet adapter into the OTG port?
I'd like to use the Tab2 to control an Elphel camera out in the wilds...
Hi
I want to connect my LAN connection via RJ45 cable .
What I want is
connect RJ45 using RJ45 to USB cable, and then via OTG cable to my phone. and then make a wifi hotspot. :laugh:
any idea guys?
i just got the surface pro docking station and hooked it up , everything is working except the ethernet . it first finds connection then starts to indentify and then it keeps saying unidentified network. i have updated the latest surface ethernet adapter driver. whats going on?
i can connect with an usb to ethernet adapter no problem and my other comps are also connected so its not my router/ modem . its the ethernet connection on the surface pro docking station. ps, the usb to ethernet adapter works while plugged into the docking station.
Does it physically function while claiming to be an unidentified network? My laptops ethernet port also labels it as an unidentified network but works perfectly fine.
no i can not connet to the net via the rj45 connection but like i said when i connect with the rj45 connected to a usb adapter the internet works fine , i dont know what i m missing here, i figured, plug the rj45 connector in and it would connect. what has the usb adapter got that the docking station ethernet connector dosent.
I am trying to connect my NVidia Sheild to a powered usb hub with no luck at this point.
Heres what I'm using:
Powered Hub
USB to Ethernet
OTG to USB
Male to Male USB
So I am taking the OTG to USB and connecting it to the Sheild OTG port. From there I have a Male to Male USB connecting the OTG to USB to the Powered usb hub. When I do this I can see that the Sheild's power light is orange which indicates to me that it is getting power and not acting as the USB Host for the Hub?
I did notice when I tried to use an air mouse directly with the OTG to USB it works as it should but not when it's connected to the powered usb hub instead, then nothing works (just charging). Also my ethernet adapter doesnt work via the powered usb hub or the OTG to USB.
BTW this whole physical setup worked just fine (plug and play) with both android MK808 and MK908. I was surprised that the Sheild isnt picking this up as well.
Can anyone tell me if I have incompatable hardware and if so what is compatable? Also I do not have ROOT access to the Sheild...yet, could that be the issue?
Many thanks in advance.

To begin with, hello to you all on the forums!
I have a question and I would appreciate any suggestions on how to progress.
I have a Z1 Compact (D5503) that I would like connected to Internet via RJ-45 and a pretty much standard Wi-Fi router (with ethernet outs, of course).
What I decided to do was get an OTG cable, a USB ethernet adapter, and just plug it all in together: router -> RJ45 -> ethernet adapter -> OTG cable -> D5503. That didn't work. I thought maybe the adapter is lacking power, so I used a USB hub - that didn't work either (with 2 different hubs and 2 different OTG cables in all possible configurations). The phone seems not to be aware of the ethernet adapter at all (when trying with a hub, it's either only charging, or charging and informing about a PC connection, depending on what I plug the hub into - but the adapter seems not to be detected at all, or I'm unaware of where to look; no internet connection either; without a hub, nothing happens when I plug in).
I have seen on this forum, and some other places on the net, that such connection should be possible. What am I doing wrong? Am I missing some steps in the phone configuration?
I know I can just use Wi-Fi for that connection, and I will if there's no solution - I would much prefer a wired option, however.
Thanks in advance for all your help!
