Hello guys,
Is it possible to get Internet via USB-ethernet adapter?
I have tried to connect LAN adapter - the phone somehow can see the network, but there is no internet connection.
On the router also it looks that the phone is connected to the LAN port.
Do I have to change some settings on the phone?
I tried airplane mod, but still no joy.
Please, support.

So at home, in some remote rooms where my Wi Fi doesn't reach, I have a dLAN going through the power supply... Which I usually use to connect my PC on...
Also, when I connect my TD to my computer, it uses the Internet connection for all data transfers.
So my question is : Rather that having to turn on my computer to have Internet access on my Diamond, is it possible to use directly the signal from the dLAN (it's a Devolo one, so it has a RJ 45 connection, and a USB 2.0 so I guess some USB 2.0 <-> Mini-USB adaptator should exist) on my Diamond?

I strongly doubt that you can use the USB connection, because the dLan device needs to be connected to a HOST-enabled USB port, which the Diamond simply does not have.
But there is an even better solution for you, which even frees you from any wires...
---> Connect a WiFi Accesspoint to the RJ45 of the dLAN, use the WiFi in this new area to connect to the Diamond....
Good Luck
That's what I'm planing to do anyway, but 100 euros is a little to much for a simple range extender knowing that a WiFi router costs about 50 euros...
There's a Belkin one on ebuyer.com for £30.99
In some places i do not want to use 3g or wifi but have a wired ethernet port free on the router. Some apps only work via wifi or 3g. I use the media importer app with USB OTG cable and a USB/LAN converter for email browsing. Is there a way I can trick apps such as (BBC iPlayer, sky go) to work via the wired LAN port? I would rather not root.
Απ: Using wired ethernet - not 3g or wifi
Why don't you use something like this, (I can't post URLs, just search eBay for "EDUP 150Mbps Portable Mini Wireless Wifi AP Client") and connect via WiFi to the wired lan?
It acts as a mini access point, a repeater or a WiFi client, and it is powered via any USB port, or a provided 5V power supply.

i thought he don't want to use wifi ?
one thing that can be tried is to use iptables. Basically the same tricks that is used by ProxyDroid. Just re-route everything that goes to the wifi interface to the wired interface. Though that means the wifi interface may still needs to be up, but not actually connected to the router.
Hello, if i enable usb reverse tethering on the M7 and connect it to the usb port of an active router, will an internet connection be established to the phone? Will the access speeds be similar to an ethernet/LAN connection?

Afaik the USB port on your router will give Internet access to the device connected to it (like a printer) but not the opposite. It might be possible if you flash a custom firmware on your rooter. The speed of a LAN isn't determined by the Internet connection speed. All the machines connected to the rooter will communicate between them at normal speed. Internet speed will be limited to your phone mobile data speed (if its possible to make this work)

That is very helpful. Basically by reverse tethering to a compatible router's usb port I will be able to have internet connection without the use of an ethernet cable, as very few phones have usb otg ethernet drivers installed.
Hi,
I know chromecast supports some ethernet to usb devices, meaning you can connect your cc via Ethernet instead of wifi.
I was wondering if anyone has achieved turning a chromecast (rooted probably required) into a wifi receiver and sending wifi data via Ethernet to another device (eg. Tv with an eth port but no wifi).
Hi,
I've received a chromecast with "broken" wi-fi. It cannot connect to anything. Just sits on setup page and there is no broadcast wifi. Can I do anything with it? I've read that there is custom rom but I cannot check serial to root it. Any suggestions? Can I make it work with external usb wifi dongle on maybe lan? I have OTG powered cable.
I would get the Chromecast LAN adapter from Google as that will bypass any need for the broken wireless features.
