I tried a USB hub / ethernet adapter that I use for my MacBook Air. I think it is made by Kensington. Unfortunately it didn't work. I have another somewhere that I am going to try too. It's disappointing since this should work. I suspect I am going to need to buy a travel router.

[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Thanks for trying. The travel router unfortunately won't really help me with my work network, though.

Oh well, it was worth a shot. :D
[Microsoft Surface] zingerhill:
Sure. I'll find the model number when I get home. Unfortunately, I think this is going to be a universal issue-- no USB networking support at all.
[Microsoft Surface] zingerhill:
Actually, there is a Microsoft website implies that there are USB ethernet adapters that are WinRT compatible. Maybe I just need a different version. I don't have enough posts to insert a link but if you search for "windows rt compatibility center" (without the quotes) it should come up. It is very possible the site is wrong.
[Microsoft Surface] jhoff80:
Huh that sounds like it could be pretty promising.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wind...patibility=Works&LastRequested=7&Locale=en-us
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
Microsoft's Compatibility Center site lists my Startech USB21000S USB Ethernet adapter as being compatible with Windows RT.

Windows RT recognizes it when I plug it in, and the adapter shows up in Device Manager. But it's still listed as needing a driver. And there's no driver to be found.

Perhaps Microsoft's compatibility list thinks "recognized" is the same as "compatible."
[Microsoft Surface] zingerhill:
Ok. I stand corrected. USB Ethernet works!

I purchased the "Plugable USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapter" and followed the instructions in their blog. It works great. What's even better is that the same driver now works on my "Kensington USB Mini Dock with Ethernet". It automatically installed the right driver.

See the instructions here:

http://plugable.com/2012/11/16/usb-ethernet-microsoft-surface

The downside is that this could conceivably be disabled by Microsoft.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
It very well could be, as Asix has now pulled that driver from its site. The latest update from Plugable says that Microsoft does not allow third-party drivers for Windows RT:

[Microsoft Surface] addictivepixels:
I can confirm that the 10/200 usb pluggable ethernet adapter works. You need to download the drivers from their site and add it from the device manager. Not too hard or tedious.
[Microsoft Surface] JCK4P:
Plugable has been asked to stop providing the WinRT USB Ethernet driver to customers, so the download on our website will be going away soon. We'll continue hosting the driver for a bit longer, to support those who have ordered the adapter and haven't installed it yet, but after December 23, the driver will be taken down. For more information, see http://plugable.com/2012/12/11/windows-rt-surface-usb-ethernet-takedown.

After 12/23, we'll continue to sell and support the Plugable USB2-E100 adapter for other platforms, and we'll keep the installation instructions up too.

We really like our Surface, and hope that this situation can be resolved soon, enabling new drivers for this and other USB devices.

[Microsoft Surface] christr:
I know it's been a month since this thread last had a post. But, I got my Plugable ethernet adapter in today, dug up the RT drivers that M$ 'banned' and it still works. I've done a few Windows Updates (including 1 firmware update) since MS forced the retailers to pull the driver down and it fortunately still works.

Lets hope they don't "Fix" this. :)

[Microsoft Surface] fairfax777:
Plugable ethernet and latest RT updates

Just curious, did you try using the adapter first without installing the drivers you saved earlier? Since it has been a month since the last post, it is possible the drivers were incorporated into one of the recent Surface RT updates. Maybe I'm wrong, but after reading a lot of the information on the Plugable website a while back, I don't think MS is trying to stop us from adding new hardware, but they're being cautious about releasing the drivers, and they're holding steadfast on not allowing the drivers to be supplied directly from third parties.
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
You could uninstall the driver from Device Manager and try plugging the adapter in again if you want to check...

[Microsoft Surface] hotphil:
Not USB, but my portable rechargeable WiFi hotspot arrived yesterday (one of these http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/300858750522). Tried it out this morning, works exactly as it should - turn it on, stick the LAN cable in and my Surface is wirelessly on the LAN.

I'm not too worried about having maximum bandwidth, the trade-off of not having an (unsightly?) protrusion from the USB socket works for me.

Haven't tried the 3G-ness as I only have a WiMAX USB stick and it didn't seem to like that.

For <$30 these might be a good solution for others.
[Microsoft Surface] hotphil:
I take it back. Why will I never learn that cheap-ass electronics from China never work? My little portable hotspot died on the second day. Totally dead. Sent details to seller who requested I tried turning it on after letting it charge - dumbass.

Anyway, I think I'll pick up one of these http://www.belkin.com/au/p/P-F9K1107 which does much the same thing, but without built in power (but it will draw from USB) and is a "name" brand so might work for longer than 24 hours.

Ultra USB 2.0 to 10/100 Ethernet LAN Adapter - Full/Half Duplex, Remote Wakeup & Suspend

ModeItem#: U12-40616 | Model#: U12-40616

List Price: $19.99

Instant Savings: - $10.00 (50%)

Price: $9.99

Works great. Load drivers mentioned, appears in Device Manager as: ASIX AX88772A USB2.0 to Fast Ethernet Adapter

Today I walked into TigerDirect and saw their generic Ultra branded adapter. Since it was on sale for $10 I took a gamble. It was a long shot after testing and failing the 8 other adapters I had in the junk drawer. I was rather stunned when I tested it and it appeared as AX8?77?A or something similar at first on the WinRT in Device Manager. So, I loaded the drivers from the zip file and it loaded perfectly. After awaking from shock, I went back in the store and bought the other Ultra adapter for $10 which was the last one in store stock. They are still available on the website on sale for $10 (until they read this).

After hours of research on various models, I found the TRENDnet - TU2-ET100 - Hi-Speed USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet Adapter also has AX88772A. While TigerDirect used to sell the TU2-ET100 in their stores, they are currently out of stock (in store). I have used the TU2-ET100 before and it worked great on other systems.

Enjoy.

Are you getting 1000 speeds
[Microsoft Surface] terrigan:
Looks like it, yeah.
[Microsoft Surface] hotphil:
Isn't the socket USB2? Am I right in thinking then that although the adaptor may link at 1gigabit, the USB max is 0.48(?)gigabit - transfers won't be quite the gigabit experience.
[Microsoft Surface] hisoft:
At least , maybe, it better than 0.1 gigabit.

For my NAS 0.48 gigabit were enough. I can read/write faster than 0.1 gigabit but slower than 0.48 gigabit. Then 1 or 0.48 were the same.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
Upgrading the Surface RT to Windows 8.1 RT kills the driver for the AX88772 chipset. I just tried it.

If you want to keep wired ethernet access, don't upgrade your Surface RT to Windows 8.1.
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Yeah, MS changed the root certificate that all signed binaries need to chain to. Once we manage to "jailbreak" it again you'll be able to use that driver, though.

TrendNet TU2-ET100 working on Windows RT 8.1 Update 1

I've got my TrendNet TU2-ET100 working on Windows RT 8.1 Update 1!!!

To make this work;

- Plug in your Ethernet Adapter.

- Open Device Manager, right click on the Ethernet Adapter, it should have a yellow exclamation mark.

- Choose update driver, then select "Browse my computer for driver software". Then click “Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer”.

- If it doesn’t take you directly to Network Adapters, choose it from the list. In the left pane your should see ASIX, highlight it and you should only have one option USB FE Family Controller. Select and next.

Works perfect... ;)

[HTC Wildfire S] caseyatbt:
I picked up a Wildfire S Virgin Mobile that cannot be activated. I wanted a small mp3 player with an Android flavor. I unlocked the bootloader via HTCdev.com. I loaded Team BlueRidge Recovery 1.1.0. I made a nandroid backup.

I tried to flash a couple CM roms and on bootup they would get past the HTC splash screen and go blank and that would be it. I tried a GB rom and it flashed fine and booted up. However it turned out it was a marvel rom and not a marvelc rom so wifi and BT didn't work. I decided to try loading a TeamWin recovery. I put the newest one and when I tried to flash a rom it gave me an error. I downgraded it to v2.2.2.0 and had the same error. I put TeamRidge back on and now every rom I try to install errors on me.

I am guessing that I corrupted something when I tried to flash with TeamWin and now I can't flash anything. I reformatted the sdcard but it made no difference.

CAn anyone bail me out. I really want to run a CM9 or CM10 rom.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Kawaisa:
I liked the protection and the grip from when I had it on my HTC but the silicone made it really alloying when putting it in and taking it out of my pocket and I'd assume it'd be worse since the Note is humongous. I'm guessing it's not a big deal to everyone else?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] barry99705:
The silicone on my AMS case isn't very tacky at all. Also the only place it's on the outside is the corners, everything else is covered with plastic.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Cyclonut:
IMHO the Trident Aegis line of cases are the best on the market bar none. Better protection than the tpu type cases and not near as bulky with almost as good protection as some of the "Sarcophagus" type cases out.

I have had them on my ET4G, SG3, and now waiting for the GN2 Aegis to release! I like and believe in these cases so much I always get a blue one and a black one to swap out occassionally.

RaptorMD:

Ya', cnn.cn carries the housing. It's actually one of the links I included in my previous post. I appreciate you letting me know that they're a straight-forward business though. That was my main worry. However, location is also another big worry for me. Are you aware of any suppliers in the United States or Europe? Communication, shipping times, and reliability are just so much better when you're not dealing with potential scammers in China; and for some reason, it's always China.

I've worked with businesses and eBay sellers in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, India, Australia, the U.K., Germany, and China, and it's always China. I've had a chinese business try to scam me. I've had a chinese business ship me shawdy replacement parts and claim that they're original. If it's not one thing, it's another. Then on the flipside, all of the best stuff comes from China. I have a supplier in China that gets me all of my replacement iPhone parts for my business, and they're fantastic; so is his customer service! It's just so difficult to determine which sellers are good and which sellers are total crap.

Anyway, I should wrap this up. If I don't, it'll turn into a neverending rant. So, if you say that cnn.cn is a good, reliable seller, I guess I'll go ahead and give them a shot. I appreciate your post, and hope you have a pleasant day. Take care and have a good one!

Thank you,

This was from a post a few months back. Pretty close eh?

Screen: 4.65" - 1280x720 resolution at 326 ppi ( Same as Iphone )

Processor: Quad-core Tegra 3 processor

Camera: 8 - 10 MP

Honestly, look at what the Nexus 7 has, and the price point. It does not get any better! To think it has a bigger screen, a better processor, a bigger battery for only $199, I can only imagine their phone being not much more. Yes, it is lacking a bit in the radio and camera areas but realistically, it's not illogical to expect it to be around $350 or less.
