Dear Aunt TUAW: Will my MacBook Air Ethernet adapter work with my iPad?

Filed under:

Dear Aunt TUAW,

Whoa, it’s sure been hot here in Texas lately, so it’s a good thing you’re staying in air-conditioned comfort at the resort there in Florida. That reminds me of something I meant to ask you…

Since I’m basically hanging out in my dorm room with its gigabit Ethernet connection to beat the heat, I’d love to figure out a way to hook that big pipe to my iPad. Remember the old MacBook Air that I got rid of? Well, I still have the USB Ethernet Adapter for it, and I was wondering if plugging that into the USB port on the iPad Camera Connection Kit would give me a way to use Ethernet on the iPad.

I don’t have a Camera Connection Kit, but if this works, I’ll run out and buy one as soon as I get money from Mom & Dad.

Stay cool,

Your loving nephew, Chris
