Is it possible to use a USB to ethernet adapter in a Origen-board on Android? Due to lack of a ethernet port.

I have now tried a usb-ethernet adapter in the ICS Origen Linaro build and it works fine. The one that I use is http://www.speeddragon.com/index.php?controller=Default&action=ProductInfo&Id=119 But is probably works with a lot more adapters as well.

Yes, most USB Ethernet adapters should work. And if they work on your GNU/Linux PC, they should work on your board too (provided the corresponding kernel modules are compiled).

As far as I am concerned, I'm using Apple USB Ethernet devices. They are very well supported by Linux and are very compact. See http://free-electrons.com/blog/usbeth/

Cheers,

Michael.
