I have been searching for any way to attach Ethernet cable to a PPP. Bumped into this thread.
It looks like this dock should work, but it's out of stock .
I have tried this one but PPP (latest Mobian) does not recognise it, although PureOS (which is also Debian-based) on Librem 13 laptop does straight away — without having to install any drivers. Neither does PPP seem to pick up power charge from it.
So, is there supposed to be any way to have PPP connected to an Ethernet cable and charged at the same time?
I would like to set one PPP permanently connected to a power cable and my local network to use it as secondary/reserve point of Internet access (through mobile network). Using wi-fi instead of Ethernet would be an option, but I'd like to explore/exhaust the Ethernet option first.
