Re: Mini-Usb to Ethernet?

The problem is simpler than that - the USB port simply doesn't operate as a host controller or root hub. It is a client interface only. If it DID support host interface mode, then yes, you could easily plug in a USB to ethernet controller, no problems. But, since it doesn't, it's not possible without changing the system board.
