Chromecast Ultra Ethernet Adapter work with Google Chromecast with Tv?

Jump to Best Response

I've both Google Chromecast with TV and now a Google Chromecast Ultra (thanks to the Cyberpunk 2077 promo).

With Google Chromecast Ultra there is a power adapter with Ethernet plug-in... is the same that is sold for the new Google Chromecast with Tv? Can i use this adapter with Google Chromecast with TV without problems?

Thanks

The Chromecast Ultra uses a micro-USB connector, while the newer Chromecast with Google TV uses the newer USB-C connector. Therefore, the older power adapter with built in Ethernet will not work with the newer CC w/GTV device.

Why not Zoidberg?

Hey @purple1976 

I am not sure about that

But you are welcome to ask in the Chromecast Community

What if I use a micro-USB to USB C adapter ?

No, a micro-USB to USB-C adapter won't work for this (it's been tried). The official adapter from Google works, and I've heard some people have had good luck with some third-party USB-C hubs that have Ethernet ports built in.

I confirm that I have tested the micro USB to USB-C adapter and it doesn't work :frowning_face:

It's a pity
