I want to connect the HTC One M9 to RJ45 ethernet, using some micro-usb to ethernet adapter via OTG. Android supports it starting from marshmallow, but no idea if the feature is present on the One M9, I think it depends on the kernel.
Anyone knows if it's possible or got it working?
Forget this phone, LG V20 and Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ support OTG USB to ethernet adapters. See more here:

Does anyone know a good micro or standard usb to rj45 Ethernet adapter for the HTC one m8? OTG?
Hello everyone,
i recently got a LG G Pag 10.1 and picked up a otg cable for it, it reads flash drives just fine. i also picked up a inateck hbu3vl3-4 (a 3 port usb 3 hub and gigabit ethernet port) the tablet will not read any of the usb ports or even use the gigabit network. do any of you folks have any ideas on how to get this device to work?
(the same otg cable/hub works on my s4, though the ethernet port does not work on it either)
any help would be great,

I have an old USB-Ethernet adapter. It works with an OTG cable to provide me a wired internet connection. Unlike your device, my adapter is neither an USB hub nor gigabit capable.
Hi all,
Has anyone tried a USB C to Ethernet converter... I tried one today but seems as if Android won't see it as a connected device or get an IP address...
Has anyone tried this before I go down a road that leads no where...
Thanks
Tried a Windows contiuum Dock once, but that was not connected to the Ethernet
I am facing the same problem.
I tried the official cable, usb type c to usb type A, it doesn't work. Then I bought a usb type c to usb type c cable, neither...
What about installing a custom kernel that supports usb to ethernet over otg?
It should work with some devices, but not sure about any HTC.

In case anyone was unaware....Came across a video on YouTube and found out that one of the adapters that came with the phone, USB-C to USB Female-which was part of the SmartSwitch, turn out that it is an OTG adapter.
You can use it to connect thumb drive, usb harddrive, usb hub, keyboard and mouse...It even lets you charge another device from your phone.
The microUSB adapter is just that an adapter not OTG ....I did find a 2 pack OTG adapter for USB-C to microUSB on amazon for $7 and have verified they work too. USB 3.1 Type-C to MicroUSB 2.0 Female OTG Adapter, Gray, pack of 2, for Google Pixel/Pixel XL, Nexus 5X/6P, LG G5, Moto Z, HTC m10 & others
I think this is detailed as an OTG adapter within the owners manual anyway
Nexus 5x 7.1.1 rooted.
OTG works when mounting a flash drive, using a USB-C -> female USB A adapter.
If I plug in a USB LTE dongle, it doesn't power on. I've tried the above adapter, and a standard micro-USB OTG cable connected to a micro-USB -> USB-C adapter, without success. The dongle works with an OTG cable on a Galaxy S4, and on computers.
USB-C can manage OTG via negotiation between the phone and peripheral; it doesn't rely on the ID pin to be shorted. I'm guessing the dongle doesn't have the software to talk to USB-C devices.
Has anyone else had issues with peripherals (not flash cards) connecting via OTG?
For reference, the dongle is a Huawei 397u-53 4G LTE adapter.
