How to use an iPad Ethernet Adapter Dongle

In order to use an iPad Ethernet Adapter,
first determine if your iPad uses Lightning or USB-C to charge

While Lightning is the most common for the majority of iPads,
Pro series iPads and other newer iPads use USB-C.
You will need a different adapter depending on your iPad's connection type.
If you can't visually inspect your iPad, a list of iPads and their connectors can be found HERE.

Here's where you can purchase an adapter for a Lightning iPad

And here's where you can purchase an adapter for a USB-C iPad

Once you've confirmed that you have the correct adapter, here's how to use it in 4 easy steps:

1. On the iPad you'll be using with the iPad ethernet adapter:
   Go to iPad settings > Wi-Fi > Turn Wi-Fi Off
   
   
   
2. Insert an Ethernet Cord into the 4th port from the right on your Router.
   (Do NOT insert into the 5th port from the right, this port will NOT work)
   
   
   
3. Connect the Ethernet Cord to the iPad Ethernet Adapter, and connect the adapter to the iPad.
   
   
   
4. Verify the Wi-Fi status in the Sport Scope app says "Ethernet"
   

Warning: Some iPads may not work with certain Adapters because there is a backend setting glitch in the iPad preventing connection.
This can usually be fixed by factory resetting your iPad (At your own risk - make sure you have all your passwords and data saved elsewhere)

These settings can be found in Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad > Erase All Content and Settings

(IMPORTANT NOTE: Selecting "Reset All Settings" WILL NOT WORK; You must select "Erase all content and Settings")
