Review on πŸ”Œ Enhance Connectivity: Powered HUB with OTG Micro USB Ethernet Adapter for Raspberry Pi Zero, Google Nexus Player & Windows Android Tablet by Joseph Lang

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Works very well with Raspberry Pi Zero W

I have several projects that I create on Raspberry Pi Zero W and in many of them the Pi is a WiFi hotspot. During development I needed LAN access to it, so I bought it, which includes Ethernet and a few extra USBs in case I need to connect a keyboard or other device. Works very well. I've tried using a 5V DC power supply and plugging it into the Pi's USB power port, but it didn't quite work as expected, so I don't use it with power through, just as a regular hub in a regular one Port Micro USB to Pi. Requires no setup on the Pi and allows me to access the LAN via Ethernet and run a hotspot for projects I'm working on.

Pros
  • Network adapter
Cons
  • Not everything fits
