USB & Ethernet Hub - Works with Xiaomi Mi Box, Laptops, Tablets, Smartphones

[@frankmoolah]

I've been using this type of setup for years, but I opted for the USB 3.0 version hub instead. Also, I am able to connect my merged internal storage USB stick to an empty USB port on the hub to expand storage capacity which works wonders. Lastly, based on numerous tests I've ran, I've noticed that only SanDisks USB sticks were successful when expanding internal storage.

[@Tonymultani.786]

How much price

[@TheWardog1369]

I'd love to see a speed test comparison, I heard the USB 2.0 bus on the inside was slower than the wifi chip. Just wondering. But I do think there should be more options. Thanks for the video

[@gutwallst6645]

speed test comparison?

[@santhakumarigovindaraj]

i have saw tp-link hub with ethernet port which was cheaper than this can I go for it and does that support on the tv box??

[@codeeye]

Question : Are you able to use one of the USB ports to extend internal storage and the other 2 as regular USB ports?

[@ChigzTech]

Yes you can.

[@ΣαπιοΜηλο]

Hi, Can you use simultaneously the same time all the devices that is connected to this adapter?

[@hondastyper]

@@ΣαπιοΜηλο yes

[@aldelmontealdm]

You could have tested the three usb ports if all works simultaneously. Would have been more useful review.

[@substance44]

Only thing missing in this review is a speedtest.

[@ChigzTech]

Thanks for watching 😎👍

[@claystudiofx]

does it have enough power when we connect external drive ?

[@pichulo23]

Nice! This convenced me to get me a mi box!

[@gaelad]

I connected the ugreen's adapter but I get a maximum speed test and 100 MB upload and download. As if there is some limitation of xiaomi itself. The adapter is 1 Giga. I have a 1 gigabyte internet and at the moment the box does not take advantage of it wirelessly only wirelessly so I get to the 250 mega area.

U ain't never gonna get gigabit with usb 2.0 port on xiaomi mi box.

You could have done a speedtest comparison between Wifi and Ethernet ....now that wouldve been a review!

[@Rolwhite]

Thanks for this...I had said this was the only thing the Mi Box was missing!

Yes i agree. This device is so useful.

Does it support USB tethering from an Android phone using its own USB 2.0?

[@squidscrew1339]

Does mi box's USB 2.0 support internet over USB tethering from an Android phone without using this connector?

[@simonworthington7979]

Would a straight U Green USB to ethernet adapter work plugged into a U Green USB 3 port USB/SD card hub then plugged into the MiBox? I required a TF card slot so got one of those hubs but would now like a wired network connection.

[@bvd1022]

Hi, the product isnt available, would you happen to know of a similar device that will work. I have several streaming devices including a mi box, and I would really like an Ethernet option so I can get rid of the lag and stuttering on my Chromecast devices, but I can't find an adapter with the usb hubs too with the Ethernet connection that says it would be compatible. I'm in the US any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[@altavistasfo]

Good presentation. Just needs speedtest to complete this presentation. Thanks

[@haziqhasan6334]

i just bought the ugreen ethernet usb , at the manual it says that need the driver need to be install before using ,but when i plug the ugreen ethernet at my amazon fire tv cube , so far its working fine without install/download the driver i just plug and play , speed test run so far so good , usb port also so far also smooth.. so my question did i still need to install the driver at my amazon tv cube sir ?

Will the ethernet automatically detected when the box goes sleep and turn back on again? Or should we unplug then plug it back? Thanks for the answer.

[@royajunique]

Chigz ,can you please confirm whether the usb keyboard will work on the recovery mode on mi box 3.

[@giogio8022]

Hi, thanks for this video. I have the Ugreen USB & Ethernet Hub that works perfectly. But it has one problem. When Mi Box wakes up it does not connect to internet. I am made to turn off the Mi Box from socket and turn it on again. After that it works. To avoid turning off and on all the time I canceled the sleep mode for Mi box and it is on all the time 24/7. I wonder if it can cause malfunction of my Mi Box?

[@danielklem8727]

I did purchase this and the keyboard works flawlessly but u fortunately it did not speed up my MIBOX, it actually slowed down. So back to wireless which is not a big deal I needed keyboard much more.

[@captainzeppos]

It may be working when connected, but what happens when the Mi Box goes to sleep? I've heard these ugreen adapters based on the ASIX88772 chipset (or whatever it is) cannot wake up and we need to either reboot Mi Box or replug the adapter. Which is a deal breaker.

[@tarcisioalvesdemenezes1146]

Is that true?

[@SorilMusic]

Yes it is, got my mibox with ugreen hub, and ethernet connexion stop working after wake from sleep, i have to reboot every time, so this hub is out for me.

[@adamn5821]

Is there another hub/adapter that could do the same thing but not have to reboot when box goes to sleep?

I'm not seeing the Ethernet option on my mi box, I haven't gotten an adapter yet so I'm assuming it'll show up when I plug it in.

I would like to unformat my hard drive, and place storage access back to Internal Storage, so I can have the full use of the 8tb storage. If you could please get back to me with some info, If you happen to know, it will be greatly appreciated. Thank you kindly! (Note: I do not need to restore/recover files.

[@LuisGarcia77]

Have you tested a USB Drive with the HUB?

[@charleschapman2428]

The USB on the box is 2.0 so it can only move data at 2.0 speed. The other thing to consider is the LAN speed thru a Ethernet cable, the 3.0 can do 10/100/1000 and the 2.0 is 10/100 Mbps, which should be more than you need. Unless you have a box with a 3.0 port the 3.0 cable is just overkill on this box, IMO.
