Simply connect the adapter between your phone and an ethernet cable, and you can access the internet using a wired network for maximum speeds and perfect connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s even a notification that an ethernet cable is connected, which allows you to modify various settings to get online. For example, you can use DHCP to automatically receive an IP address, or choose a static IP if necessary. You could even connect multiple ethernet adapters, if you needed to for some reason. You can see this in action in the screenshot below (click to enlarge).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-68604\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1448\" height=\"740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet.jpg 1448w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet-768x392.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/ethernet-450x230.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1448px) 100vw, 1448px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Note 8 should work with all USB-C to Ethernet adapters on the market, from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/usb-c-accessories\/usb-c-to-ethernet-adapters\">dedicated USB-C to Ethernet adapters<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/by-type\/usb-c-accessories\/usb-c-hubs\">USB-C hubs<\/a> which include ethernet in addition to USB-A, Micro SD or other ports.<\/p>\n<p>No software is required to make the adapter work on the Note 8; in our testing with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/vseven-usb-c-to-gigabit-ethernet-adapter-cable-black-64479\">VSeven USB-C to Ethernet adapter<\/a>, it worked perfectly from the moment it was plugged in.
