using Pangolin .NET with newer laptop with NO ethernet ports

[carlos3621]

I just purchased a PC laptop with windows 8.1 and NO Ethernet port!
I'm running a pangolin .net setup.

so I pickup up a USB 3.0 to Ethernet adapter, and YES it worked flawless!
no delays no dropouts , even used an apc40 and all worked well.

one important note though:

the apc40 will not work on Beyond with any USB 3.0 ports!,
luckily , the laptop I purchased, came with 1 USB 2.0 port, and as soon as I plugged in the apc40 to that port, it automatically recognized it. (was not aware of this).

Hmmm, I will try to test the APC40 on the 3.0 ports of my home PC. They should be backwards compatable and all...

hi Aaron,

let me know if your Apc40 works with your usb 3 port,
I have not had a chance to try it out again.

thanks,
Carlos
