No, you need something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812150048 and you can find them basically anywhere. I've accrued about 7+ over the years, from digital cameras, hubs, cell phones, etc, etc. Even the FR came with one. -Tonym Brolin Empey wrote: Hello list, A few days ago, I was chatting with DocScrutinizer in #openmoko on FreeNode about using a USB → Ethernet adapter to connect my FreeRunner directly to my Ethernet LAN.

What your friend ment to say is: you need a usb-mini (Male:=Standard) to Usb-Type A(this is the big flat one)-FEMALE (same as in your usb-hub) Adapter. So you can plug any Device with its standard cable. There are other solutions, for example a USB-Mini to USB-Type B and an Hub with that Tyoe B.
