ENET cable question

Rick4345 · 10-05-2020, 04:07 PM

My new computer has what looks like the smaller version of the receptacle needed for my ENET cable.

Can I get an adapter to use that port? If so, does anyone have a source?

I've also seen USB to Ethernet adapters but not sure if that's the best route.

Thanks for helping!!

USB to RJ45 world perfectly fine for me.

I truly want this to be a learning experience.

However feel free to laugh at me because I am!!

I do have an Ethernet port. What I thought was a small port is actually hinged on the bottom so it expands to fit the plug in.

The miracles of modern technology. Who would have thought!!
