a question?
I have oneplus 6t and i have had to tried to connect to internet via OTG but i couldn't make it work, and I heard that 6T is does not support hardwired connection, anyone knows anything about it?
OTG to USB hub with Ethernet did not work for me. The USB ports on the hub worked, but not the Ethernet. I don't think the phone supports it.

that's weird cause almost every phone you can do that except this one.
I like to play a game in my phone but just using WIFI is not that realiable.

Hi,
I was hoping to use a wired ethernet connection to my N7.
I was reading it was possible and I happen to have the cables from before. A micro usb to usb female and then a usb to ethernet adapter. Mine is based on ADM 8515 and it doesn't work.
I haven't rooted or done anything else yet.
I have seen reports that another usb to ethernet adapter works, based on AX88772.
Anyone managed to get this to work? Does it work out of the box with the AX88772? Anyone managed to get it to work with this ADMTek one, or any other chipset?

Is there a way to use a Sprint Wireless network card/adapter with the OTG cable to get internet connection?
Ooooh thats a good question, +1 to that !
have you tried stickmount yet? So far all my usb devices worked with stickmount including flash drives, printer and external drive. (lol i know, kinda crazy)
Frankly I am not sure how do those internet stick works, i assume it is working like a usb wifi dongle that receive signal from ISP directly. but give Stickmount a try, it is free on google play store.

They are a usb stick, that you stick a SIM card into and then the SIM draws Data as it usually does.
So by what your saying, its viable... ?
I just got the Western Digital Livewire setup. My nexus 7 connects fine using a generic apple Ethernet adapter + OTG and connected straight into my cable modem. I tried to get Ethernet on the N7 through a port on the Powerline and it just would not recognize it. Has anyone else tried this or is it possible Android doesn't like to be hooked up to Ethernet that way? I'm pretty stumped.

As to your question, I have no idea. I'm just curious why you're using ethernet instead of wifi. Is there any benefit? Not trolling, I'm just wondering what your motivation is. I must admit I've never imagined anyone would use a tablet on anything other than wireless.

I've seen a few on the forum use Ethernet on their Nexus 7. It can give a more consistent internet speed in some cases and I think it drains less battery from the device. I had the Western Digital setup for some VOIP phone stuff so I thought I'd try it out. I don't have wifi.
Whether it's a powerline or not shouldn't matter as that's transparent to the connected device. It just sees an Ethernet link.
So N7 + OTG + USB Ethernet Adapter into the cable modem worked fine? N7 + USB Ethernet Adapter into the powerline did not work? What is the powerline connected to again? Is the cable modem just a "dumb" modem or is it a router as well with DHCP functionality?
Do any other devices work being connected through the powerline adapters?
Yes the N7+OTG+USB Ethernet works fine. Just started trying to network things as I have a need for it now. I see that I need to get a broadband router still. I have an Arris cable modem( TM402G/110) that I use with Xfinity Voice. I thought maybe it could have a router already in it but I guess not. Can anyone recommend a cheap broadband router, well low cost and good function?
Does anyone know if the US unlocked version supports usb OTG or not?
It works natively with my micro USB drive. I haven't tried plugging anything else in though.

I have the Amazon version of this, and I was able to use a USB ethernet dongle for networking (till I got my SIM). Splitter let me add a thumb drive, too.
Seems a decently implemented OTG, AFAICT.

Make sure your dongle is plugged into the USB 3 port. I didn't have to do anything else and mine works fine.
