Argh! Google’s Neat Ethernet Adapter For Chromecast is Proprietary
You may recall a month ago when I stumbled across Google’s way-cool power supply + Ethernet adapter for Chromecast. At just $15 I thought it novel and a great way to give Chromecast the reliability of a wired network connection. That it is.
I also thought, hoped even, that it was a relatively standard use of Androids USB-On-The-Go capability. Meaning that I had hoped it would serve an Android tablet just the same as it handled Chromecast, providing power + Ethernet. That’s where I was wrong.
