Hello,
Does anybody know if there is any actually working OTG ethernet device for MOTO G4 [plus]?
I did try to use an ASIX AX88179 adapter, without success (strangely, it got connected with and IP address, and I can PING my phone (and from my phone), but I can’t use Chrome or any Internet dependent app).
Thanks.

Hi,
I've been trying to connect my A70 to my HTC Hero for internet tethering but it just doesn't work.
I've tried the following methods
1. USB
2. Bluetooth
3. wireless tethering (android wifi tethering)
num 1 doesn't detect my phone at all, num 2 can be paired as through BT but can't tether and for num 3, my A70 can't detect my HTC Hero as a hotspot, it can detect all others ard it but just not my HTC Hero.
I have another issue with connecting my thumbdrive and external card reader through the micro USB port.
I have a host adapter bought through ebay and i tried connecting my thumbdrive and card reader but there's no reaction from the A70 at all. my card reader has a LED light to indicate whether there's power and it was lit up when connected but the A70 just doesn't read it.
I've tried another way which is to connect a external HDD whcih i used a Y-cable and connected the other end to a power source to ensure there's enough power but again the A70 doesn't pickup anything.
I'm really getting frustrated with these issues cause these 2 features were the selling point to me when i bought the A70 and now i can't use it.
Appreciate if someone can shed some light on this.
thanks
For the USB issues, you may be using the wrong cable. You need to use a USB host cable in order to read a thumb drive or to use an Android (or other) phone's USB tether. The cord that comes with the A70 is a MicroUSB B connector; you need a MicroUSB A.
As far as the WiFi hotspot on your Hero, does the hero do only ad hoc WiFi? I know the Droid 1 does. You cannot (at this point, without rooting and rearranging some code) hook the Archos up to an ad hoc WiFi.
For bluetooth, you need to use Wireless Tether on your Android handset, but you have to have the app set for bluetooth. Get that set, pair the devices, and start the bluetooth tether on your Hero. Then, go into the Archos menu under Cell Phone Tethering and choose your Hero (should be under available devices). Hit tether and you're good to go.

...maybe. I have a rooted HTC Incredible with Wireless Tether installed. A70 works great with wifi (which is the better option anyway), but will not tether with bluetooth. It will pair, but the phone doesn't show up as an available device in the A70 tethering setup. There may be another bluetooth tether phone app that will work with my Inc, but Wireless Tether does not. There is even a disclaimer in the app about incompatibility with some phones.
Is it possible to use a WII lan adapter for wired network with the A500?
I cant say for sure without trying it, but I wouldn't expect it to without going to a fair bit of effort... I'd think by far the easiest option would be to pick up a cheap wifi router..
That being said, I can see where there would be advantages to using something like that wii adaptor (ie at work if your office only has a wired lan.. cant see too many system administrators being happy about you installing a new router in the office..)
*shrugs*
I just got wired network partly working using a Netgear FA101 USB ethernet adapter. It's not 100% as lots of apps (such as the market or network scanning software) check wifi state before running rather than for any other network interfaces.
To get it working I am using Thor A500/A501 Kernel v3.9r3 for HC 3.2 and i have to run "dhcpcd eth0" after plugging it in.
I'm guessing you'll have to use a rooted device and custom kernel like this. You also won't be able to do everything... web browsing works (though complains on load) as does Trillian and a few other things. Maps also work, though it complains as well to turn on wifi. The market does not work, it looks like you can browse it but downloads won't start until wifi is up again.
I am looking to connect my tv box with the Ethernet port on the OUYA so I can use the play channels that come with the tv box.
I have great Wi-Fi connection to OUYA but nothing to tv box.
Is it possible to use the Ethernet port for internet out?
Thanks for any/all ideas

I believe you're asking if the Ouya can act as a router or bridge device, so that this other (Ethernet) device could tap in to the Internet. Practically speaking, no.
An advanced user could possibly root the device, set up a script to start the WiFi (initially shut off since the Ethernet would be in use), assign an address/subnet to the Ethernet, and then kick off "ip route" and/or "route" commands to relay packets properly. This by itself would not provide any DHCP service for the remote device, but that device could be set up with a static IP.
A practical answer is to get a wireless bridge device with multiple Ethernet ports, then even the Ouya could move over to Ethernet. Alternatively, a router (even an older one) that is capable of running DD-WRT firmware could be set up in "Client Bridge" mode, achieving the same.
Hi,
I have connected my Epson TX101 USB printer to the USB port of DLink DSL 2750u wireless router.
I have configured the router and enabled print server function.
By adding the printer at http://192.168.1.1:631/printers/EPSON, I can print from my pc and other laptops.
But how do I print from my android phone (running android version 4.1.2) using the epson printer connected to DSL 2750u USB port?
What software do I use on My phone?
I have got a Samsung Galaxy S Advance phone with the stock ROM
Google get me here.. i was also searching this issue... if i get it i ll update here soon....

Epson has an app on the Play Store called the "Epson Print Enabler".
Some printers require a little help with the communication to and from an Android device and the Printer.
Good Luck!

Hey guys,
I have a little problem. I ordered an OBD2 Wifi Dongle for reading fault codes of my car. I chose a Wifi adapter because some of my family members are iOS users so they can use it, too.
The dongle is working fine, connected it with my windows tablet and could read the fault codes of my ford mondeo.
With my device (htc one m9 running LOS15.1) I can connect the wifi to the dongle but I can't get connection to the specific port.
The default address and port is 192.168.0.10:35000. I can ping the adapter but even a port check on my device does not work.
I've read something about, that android can't connect/handle ad-hoc networks correctly? Is this still a problem in android 8.1?
I already tried to give my phone a static address but no success.
Do you have an idea what I need to change/edit or what I can do?
Thank you
Regards,
Dominic
