Hello together,

i bought an USB Ethernet Adapter. My plan was, to have Internet in the basement without wifi or other cordless tecnologies.

I plugged the microusb in the phone and the LAN cable on the other side of the adapter. Nothing happened.

Is it possible to use the Intex Aquafish with internet over microusb and how?

Thank you

Thoys

it depends on the model of the USB adapter im afraid.

Double-check the kernel support for your usb ethernet adapter. If there are drivers, you might need to compile them and load them before being able to use it.

EDIT: also kernel requires specific USB features which might / might not be there. If these are missing, and can't be compiled as modules, you're out of luck.
