Micro USB Ethernet Adapter for Tablets

The Smays SMAYS-MICRO-USB-8152-W adds a wired RJ45 LAN connection to devices that only have a Micro USB port. It is built around a Realtek RTL8152 chipset and targets owners of older Android tablets, Windows tablets, and specific Google Nexus or Samsung models that lack built-in Ethernet. The adapter provides a driverless way to access a stable 10/100M network link for file sharing, printing, or general internet use.

Ten Inch OTG Cable with Driverless Setup

A 10-inch host OTG Micro USB cable connects directly to the device without needing an external power source. The driverless design supports Windows 8.1 or 10 (32/64 bit), Mac OS 10.9 or up, and Android 4.0 or up. Setup requires plugging it in, adjusting network settings, and restarting the device, or repeating a plug-and-unplug sequence three times to help the system recognise the new interface.

Android Compatibility Requires Ethernet Menu

Practical use on Android is limited to devices that show an Ethernet menu, even if greyed out, under Wireless & Networks settings. The adapter works with listed models such as Nexus 4, 5, 7, 10, Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Nexus, Nvidia Shield K1, Raspberry Pi Zero, HP Stream 7, and Asus T100taf. Devices without that menu option will not support the adapter regardless of the OTG cable or chipset.
