Hello,
I am not a developer but hope to get some support here as samsung has not been a big help so far.
Before updating Android versions my Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T713 would connect to Ethernet via the plugable USB 2.0 OTG Micro-B adapter.
It seems that the specific chipset used by the adapter is no longer enabled on this specific device, while I am told it is still included in all Android version 4 and up.
So my question is how can I enable the AX88772 CHIP SET in order to regain ethernet connectivity.
I tried going into dev mode and selecting "RNDIS Ethernet" in the USB configuration but that did not do anything.
Another issue possibly related is that when connecting the tablet to a Win 10 laptop it is not recognized. Here I tried many solutions including installing the media pack and other options available. No success. If this is an unrelated problem then I will post this secondary issue in another post.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is there a reason why you need Ethernet rather than wifi?

Yes, we live in a house without wifi on purpose. My wife get's immediate headaches and body pains when she is exposed to a direct signal. After having been removed from it for several years in our house I feel the same way when it is on. Our house is wired and we use both ethernet over power or ethernet over coax depending on what room we are in. The last one works beautifully.

Hello friends
I'm trying to connect a galaxy note to a lan
I bought a cable micro usb (female) type OTG (I've already proven to work well), a usb lan adapter, RJ45 cable and a router connected to the Internet.
I tried connecting the note, and I get a message:
usb device connected unknown.
trying to enter the browser, I get ortho message:
no network connection, and I get a button to go to Settings, clicking leads me to wireless connections, and do not go out of the loop.
I would appreciate, if you know (You will tell me) if you can do, or else it is impossible, or if the adapter the problem comes from usb lan, which is not correct, since it is not known for android ...
Some will wonder about why want to connect via lan, because there are 2 very simple explanations, in my job working with lan, not wifi, then it is said that both the wifi, as bluetooht, etc.. are harmful to health. I do not know if mine will be superstitions, but I when I connect to wifi in my hand I feel the electromagnetic energy, and the feeling I am not nice ...
Thank you for your attention

I believe this method wold not work. The Note would not have the driver to work with "a usb lan adapter". Only usb mice, flash disks, card readers, externally powered hard drives and a few keyboards are know to work via USB OTG with the Note. Oh and some Canon DSLRs, via DSLRController.
And if you placed any driver for Lan, as it has some connection rj45 tablet, just might work, do not you think?
There is no technological reason why this wouldn't work, you just need a kernel with USB gadget support enabled. I do not know if any of the custom kernels have that, though. You could also copy the kernel modules from a compatible one and insmod those, but first you need to find out which modules you need.

There is no such a thing as "any driver for Lan." Lan is not a device, it's network topology, not some generic technology that magically works on anything with RJ45. You need kernel modules for the specific device you have.
Hi I found that in Gingerbread, there is the possibility
excuse me but I can not put links
in the TI-Android-GingerBread-2.3.4-DevKit-2.1_DeveloperGuide
the point 1.6.5.4, talks about it
Waited for this feature for two years, and still nothing, could somebody confirm if it needs a kernel implementation or both kernel + ROM implementation?

hi, just kernel implementation nad console to start network device. (while ago i used speedmod kernel source to build my own kernel with my lan card support).

:fingers-crossed: Thank you so much for responding! It is really awesome! Could you share your kernel? Does it require ICS or JB?, even with terminal it will turn our note into a powerful tool for networking related diagnostics. For sure it can also be done with an inbuilt battery access point, but getting physical connection to RJ45 switches ports is a real advantage. Can you please point me to the RJ45 to microusb adapter you tested it ti work?, than you again my friend this new got me really excited to try this feature. :highfive:
Hi,
i would really need a USB Ethernet adapter for my Galaxy Note. I searched forums and all i found was for tablets. I also noticed several times that people were talking that you can build the driver for specific device from official driver. If i understand right i could buy some USB Ethernet adapter and then build it's driver for galaxy note? Or not? Or is there maybe some "universal" driver already made?
I would be really thankful if someone explained this a little more.
Tnx

The drivers are included in the linux kernel of android, so the driver support is directly linked to the version of the kernel used on your device.
A small search gave me a result: look for USB to RJ45 Ethernet Adapter on amazon (you'll need a USB - micro usb adaptater tho.

So if i understand there are drivers already in kernel? Because i'm almost sure i red before that there are no drivers in kernel so this doesn't work out of the box.
I have OTG adapter so this is not problem. I'll try and buy some adapter and we will see if this will work. I have hydra-core kernel on stock rom.

Sadly you'll have to try by yourself, but apparently, the one i found on amazon (around 16£) works on android 3.1+ devices.

How about this? MicroUSB to RJ45..no need of a OTG in between I havent try it though..just found it on ebay & amazon..

Hi,
here is my unhelpful comment:
I have one of the little buggers (see attached image) boght on eBay:
Search for "USB to LAN RJ45 Network"
It works under Linux and identifies itself as:
"Davicom DM9601 USB Ethernet" and uses the Linux-Kernel-Module dm9601 (as it seems).
(NOTE: One strange thing: The newly bought device uses a MAC address, that was registered to an colleague on our network here. So it spoofs the address?!?!)
Combined with the Host-USB-Adater (OTG) it can be connected to the N7000 - BUT:
A) The LED lights up and blinks to show the trafic on the line
B) Nothing happens on the screen
C) In Elixir it shows up as
Name: /dev/bus/usb/002/002
ID: 2002
Product-ID: 38656
Vendor-ID: 4070
I Get no Menu to configure the wired connection.
So I guess there is no Driver.
I Used Hydracore v7 and Thor Kernel 0.26. (which is WAAAY slower then hydracore)
are there other things I could try?
This looks an interesting idea, wonder is its possible to to have PoE as well, disconnecting network access just to charge would be pretty annoying otherwise.
Hi I recently purchased online a micro-USB to RJ45 Ethernet adapter with a 3 port USB hub like these. It was insanely cheap so I thought why not. Reviews said in most cases it was plug and play, however, I am unable to get the ethernet to work. No network icon appears in the upper right and there does not seem to be any options for a network connection. The USB ports work and it was fun watching a mouse appear and an external keyboard work immediately upon plugin. They provided a driver CD and I sideloaded all the files (85mb) onto the Fire - Pictures folder. How do I install the drivers to get the ethernet to work?
Note: Using ES File Explorer I went to Network>LAN> tapped on Scan but nothing was found.
A side question is, does anyone know how to access the 'USB computer connection' menu (where it gives you the option of selecting 'Media device' MPT or 'Camera' PTP) in settings without plugging it into a PC via USB ie. from the settings menu?
Thanks
WXsky
Doubt there is a USB to RJ45 driver driver for this device as it was never intended to work with a wired network connection. As for your other question I don't believe that menu is available on non-rooted FireOS unless a tether has been established (and then only via notification).
Apparently it wasn't intended to work with an external keyboard or mouse but this adapter made it so it could. When I plug it into the Fire it gets power as indicated by a greenish yellow light. When I plug it into the ethernet cable another light appears and it is red so that means I have connectivity, just no driver installed I'm guessing.
Could anyone else weigh in on this please? I need a bit more than just a glib "No". As I mentioned I have the drivers. They were provided on a mini disc. How do I install them? Not totally familiar with Android or other Linux devices however I've dabbled with Ubuntu but nothing on these confounded tablets.

Just because you have a mini-disk does not mean the contents will work with this device or FireOS. I have yet to see an Android device support an Ethernet adapter via OTG; a brief Google search suggests it may be possible with a few select adapters and devices. Aside from driver both kernel and ROM (FireOS) must cooperate to secure the connection. Unlikely Amazon would include that intentionally leaving it to the underlying version of Android (5.1.1) to manage the interface. Given the complexities of establishing/maintaining an Ethernet data connection me thinks you have a project on your hands. Good luck.
From a 4-Port-KVM-switch I have a spare port available. So I tried to connect my M5 lite to the PC monitor, mouse and keyboard to work as usual when I am at home. Unfortunately none of the my port-replicators with USB-C port worked for that configuraton. I tried several HDMI MHD apps, where each of them told me, that the M5 lite is capable of MHD and HDMI. The monitor display at the end of the cable stays black. For testing purposes to avoid issues reasoned by the KVM switch I also connected the monitor directly to the M5 iite - no success.
Did I miss something? Is a port replicator with additional (unknown) functionality required to share the display output via HDMI cable to a TV or PC monitor? Does ist require additional drivers?
Ah ... 431 revision, still running the unpatched 8.0.0.256. Have heard, that GSI ROMs will not work on EMUI with 9.1.x.y, but will be open for messages from someone who succeeded.
Any ideas appreciated to get the hardware based solution working. I do not want to use some kind of Wifi- or BT-based casting mechanism. Tnx a lot in advance!

No idea about this problem, been using miracast to cast the screen since is a little bit more convenient. doubt this tablet will get android 9. like, it barely got 5 months left and it reaches the two year deadline from the moment it launched. and since is a global epidemic.... this tablet will only have security updates. not even a chance at android 9.
Hello everyone,
Im trying to connect my phone (redmi note 10 pro MFF edition (europe)) with a rj45 cable to avoid wifi signal in my house. In my old samsung its connected directly, but with the xiaomi nothing happen, I dont find the option for ethernet neither.
Did any one try this ? Its just a software problem ( MIUI system) or more hardware. Since im still waiting to unlock my bootloader, Cannot try with a custom room to see if the problem persevere.
Thank you all for the feedback
any feedback ?
I do not have the Redmi Note 10 Pro, but some general questions:
1. Did you disable Wifi and enable Airplane mode?
2. Which adapter did you use?
I disabled the wifi and enable the airplane mode, but nothing change.
I use this adapter https://www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B07CR79XM7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, work as charm on my old samsung.
The issue is that in miui we dont have any ethernet interface to configurate the dhcp or other stuff.

I thought the issue was that you had no connection. I have no idea about the MiUI. So if the issue is that you get no connection these might be some obstacles:
I found a discussion (for the Redmi Note 8/Pro/8T) on the mi forum (https://c.mi.com/thread-3003395-3-1.html) where a person describes that he thinks the issue might be the chipset. Your ethernet adapter uses the 8152B chipset, but he says that it seems like you would need an adapter with a AX88179 chipset. An ethernet adapter that supports the AX88179 chipset is the https://plugable.com/products/usbc-e1000/.
Another user in the same discussion says that it works for him with the j5create adapter (https://c.mi.com/oc/thread-3003395-1-0.html), although he states that nothing indicates that he is connected. (For some reason I didn't find any information on their website about what chipset their adapter uses, so we don't know for sure if the chipset is the issue.)
But let me re-emphasize that I do not know whether that really is the issue or whether it works with one of these adapter. So be aware of that.
If the ethernet is still not working the issue might be that the kernel wasn't configured for Ethernet over USB. You can find a lot more information about these things here: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/225643/how-to-make-ethernet-work-on-android-over-otg
If you actually decide to buy a new ethernet adapter, please let me/us know whether it worked.
Thank you Ponyo71 for this intersting feedback,
I think its myabe a doubel raison : first hardware and secone software.
I get the same issue with my mibox 3, she dont regonis all the usb rj45 adapter, only the ugreen worked and another 2$ adapter that I get from discountshop.
the software raison is the only part that we can modify easly, I know that xiaomi reduce alot of option from android to optimise the battery or to not show that the chipset used is very powerfull for some specific utilisation. nad since the chipset used for wifi and BT probably is the same that manage the ethernet.
The xiaomi coast cheap, Its's normal that they bypass some non essentiel used option. More, i think if it's a option htaht only less than 5% of people use, they will supress it from miui to save and manage the battery.
Anyway, Now im back to samsung, no more xiaomi for me
Seems like it really is the chipset, since the ugreen adapter uses the AX88179 chipset. And apparently it works with your MiBox 3. So I guess it really is your ethernet adapter and not the software, although I can’t say for sure.
In this case, we will get at least the ethernet configuration but disabled. in MIUI we dont have any ethernet parameter. The software has a part of the problem
Yeah, seems like MiUI has no configuration options for Ethernet.
