Hello.
After trying (without success) to connect both my 10.1 to charger & USB drive , i found a good solution.
For 60USD there's Kingston Mobilelite Wireless MLW221 :good:

It has a built-in battery (could charge any device if needed) ,so no need power.
It has built-in WiFi hotspot.
You can plug both SD card and USB device (key or HDD,but maybe the HDD need to be powered for works like my external 1TB,so i use Y USB cable ).
You can connect to your WiFi trought the Mobilelite ,you have access to the devices attached + navigate through inernet.
Just need to install application from PlayStore https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kingston.mobilelite&feature
Turn on Mobilelite , wait until to see the blue LED ,now connect your Tab (or any device) to MobileliteWireless SSID ,then start the app.
You can browse and play all your contents from you USB drives.
The app has option for connect through another WiFi for be online and browse your USB contents at same time.
so is this a H Drive with Wifi and a card reader
It's not a Hard drive, you can plug hard drive, NTFS or FAT32.
Voyager Air
This is the best wireless HHD I ever used the Voyager Air and you can use it as a NAS in your network at home. The price is high but worth it.
Yes it's good as the Seagate Wireless Plus

But both are too expensive if you already have HDD.
Two Alternatives

Thanks for links.
The Adata seems doesn't support NTFS http://www.adata-group.com/index.php?action=product_specification&cid=9&piid=207&lan=en
RavPower seems to be OK but need confirmation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169383
Confirmed for RavPower, good.

Let me start by saying this solution does not involve USB Ethernet drivers and will not work with your current USB adapter.
My current workaround was to purchase a mini USB Wifi router adapter (Usually ~$14 I won mine on auction for $8 on ebay btw local shipping in Australia meant I got it the next day).
For all intents and purposes it looks like a standard USB Ethernet adapter but it creates a small wifi network which your Surface (WinRT) device can then connect to.
Some of these mini usb router adapters also come with 3G slots in them so it's the perfect solution when you need internet access on the go. Just plug in a SIM into the router.

but a mini USB wifi adaptor would add wifi to a device that has it.
Unless you mean a USB powered wifi access point, 2 are not the same. But yeah, thats a perfectly viable solution.
They actually call it a wifi router adaptor. Technically yes it's an access point.
I grabbed a cheapo WiFi router adapter (with built-in battery too) a while back. It lasted less than 24 hours.
I bought a TP-Link WR702N. It has no battery, but will power from any USB, is a "name" brand and has more features than the rubbish one I bought (as far as different config types go). It's tiny too. I'd recommend it.
Certainly easier/quicker than trying to get a USB WiFi adaptor working on the Surface.
Yes I've got the WR702N as well it's a neat device.
Has anyone tried this cable or one like it that lets you charge and use usb port at the same time and lets you use a powered hard drive? Please post a link to any that have been tested working.
Thanks

Hello.
As you will read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2303902 ,it's just a question of pins connecting + somes resistors.
It must work.
I will build my own maybe tomorrow for my Note 10.1 ,then report the result.
Doesn't work :crying:
I try many things for useless, i also try to change ROM for Cyanogen 10.2 ,same result.
When i plug power supply to pin 7 & 8 ,the Tab unmount the USB host by itself.

Samsara, in the post from the Tab7.0 forum, they said that the adapter would unmount and then remount the USB host. Did yours not remount the host after it unmounted it?
Hello.
They talk about Paragon HFS app, this app give you choice for mount/unmount NTFS drive only if the drive is accepted by the Tab.
In the Tab, there's no choice, it's look like no drive plugged.
My solution :good:

Like many, we like to access portable USB HD drive storage while on the GO. On this forum had done my research, apparently we need CM mod to access the storage. I was not so much interested in accessing the portable but able to transfer photos taken from my camera and store in a portable storage HD while traveling.
I had success without rooting N7 and using OTG cable to connect my Canon S100 camera directly. (N7 is rooted now with OTG Helper installed)
One device I found locally was a portable Cloud Wifi, able to perform as a router, access point repeater and battery charger. With this device I was able to create my own private network (without external 3G or Wifi) just the Cloud Wifi and N7.
All I need to do is connect portable storage to Cloud Wifi device, since it has it own internal battery it is able to power the USB HD storage. From N7 select the Cloud Wifi SSID and I am connected. Now I am able to transfer photo using OTG cable to my camera and wireless transfer file to portable HD storage.
One of the best setup with Cloud Wifi, my partner or others can connect Wifi to the portable USB storage and view media files from it.
If you like to know more this is my BLOG POST link (just started this blog for personal reference)

I have a cheap apple-compatible USB Ethernet. It uses the asix driver.
After turning off mobile data and wifi, I plugged the dongle in and a new icon appeared on my title bar, and DHCP ran and I could get to the internet over the LAN. I didn't see a way to configure it in the UI, but manual commands from the CLI work (ifconfig and friends).
I'm running Stock Pie 10.0.18.0.
I tried a second USB Ethernet I have. It's an ancient Pegasus II and it didn't show up at all.
Looking at /proc/config.gz, I see these USB things enabled:
CONFIG_USB_NET_DRIVERS=y
CONFIG_USB_USBNET=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_AX8817X=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_AX88179_178A=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDCETHER=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_NET1080=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_SUBSET=y
CONFIG_USB_BELKIN=y
CONFIG_USB_ARMLINUX=y
CONFIG_USB_NET_ZAURUS=y
I guess that means only a select number of devices will work out of the box. Those AX ones are ASIX, which is probably what allows my adapter to work.
I just noticed there is Ethernet usage next to mobile data and WiFi usage now...
This kernel have drivers for few USB-Ethernet adapters!
