How well does the ethernet port work? What devices are you able to connect to the usb ports? Any devices you have connected that do not work?

Sorry, it is too new and I have not yet used this features. I have purchased it for overseas use where wifi is not available.

Hi, the ethernet port works fine - have tried it in several locations without any problem. Same applies to the usb port - stick + harddisk no problem, but have not tried a keyboard. All in all a pretty good buy ! Good luck ! Hans

I did keep this one but only started working on setup yesterday as I've been quite busy. It seem like it will work fine for my needs although it only has 2 usb ports + the ethernet one. It does not have the webcam if you need that. Otherwise a pretty good buy at $300.00.john

It has both the USB and Ethernet that you can connect to the router. I have never used the USB, but have it connected to my Gigabit Ethernet router and it works great.

Yes it does have ethernet port and I think it is the standard 10/100. I run my on wifi, it is very fast. So far it hasn't given any problems.

Yes I did. I had a lot of problems with Internet connections with this Asus laptop, even though my router was less than 2 feet away. In fact, I couldn't even get Ethernet connection with it. Then I realize that it's more of a software problem than a hardware one. I did a clean fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr. And I haven't had a problem with Internet or Ethernet connection ever since.

I ran Ubuntu on the the board initially and everything appeared to run fine. I now run FreeBSD and use the board as a firewall. The only issue is that drivers don't exist for the second physical ethernet port (which - for some reason - uses a different chip than the first ethernet port).

Hi. You get a USB to Ethernet adaptor with it, and can buy USB to rj45 very cheap.

Hello, it works fine... Mine have been working for 3 years. To do what you want: 1) For example, Connect your internet ethernet to port 5 2) Computer A port 2 and Computer B to port 3 ------- (I am assuming you are connected on port 1) 3) Create 3 VLANs Name, for example where there are the VLANS DATA, Audio , Voip, etc... make yours (Alpha, Beta, Internet) 4) Then go to the specific sections where you can put a check on the ports and: and make sure all have the check in them, except for the ports you dont want to communicate. Done! If you want i can help you via team viewer, My twitter is @RomelSan

No, but you can get an USB to Ethernet cable adapter. Although there are two USB ports, I used a powered USB hub with my B121, which allows me to plug in multiple USB devices.

Be careful when buying a used one. I tried that twice, once from Amazon Warehouse and once from another seller, and both time got a unit with only 4 Ethernet ports. The Web UI also showed that it was limited to 4 channels.

I was having some "issues" with mine, nothing serious. Just occasionally disconnecting and then reconnecting. Checked which USB I had mine in, and it was in my USB1. Changed it to a 2.0; and haven't had a problem since then. So, in my experience, it worked with USB1; but was a little "funky" from time to time.

The best performance is over Ethernet. The USB port allows you to plugin the manufacturers wireless adapter so that the Transporter can operate over a wireless network. I believe the USB port is not supported for any other use. but you can use the Transporter wirelsslt by installing a

I'm sorry, but I dont use the ethernet; I use it wireless. I hope you find the answer your looking for. Regards.

Gigabit ethernet is backwards compatible and should work just fine with any flavor of ethernet. A USB to ethernet adapter, may or may not function at the gigabit speed, but should support other flavors of ethernet just fine. If you want up-to-date technology and maximum speed over ethernet, I would suggest the T'bolt to e'net adapter....my 2

Hi, this adapter has an ASIX 88772A USB to Ethernet chip inside. Go to the ASIX's website and download the latest driver for it. I have used it with Win 8.1 with latest ASIX drivers with no problems at all.For windows (or OS X for that matter) there are cheaper options that work equally well and use the same Ethernet chipset:Plugable USB 2.0 to 10/100 Fast Ethernet LAN Wired Network Adapter for Macbook, Chromebook, Windows 10, 8.1 and Earlier, Surface Pro, Wii, Wii U, Linux (ASIX AX88772 chipset)

Sorry, its USB 3.0/2.0 only. The only way to get it on the network would be to connect to a computer and then create a share.
