The new Google Chromecast has arrived, and it’s a better central hub for your entertainment center than ever before, but it lacks one big thing — Ethernet support.
Luckily, Google will sell an Ethernet adapter for the new Chromecast with Google TV.
Like the Chromecast Ultra that debuted a few years ago, the new Chromecast with Google TV will be able to bring both power and an Ethernet connection through a single USB port.
A special power adapter sold through the Google Store will accomplish this job by pulling power from an outlet and having an Ethernet jack on the power adapter.
Live now on the Google Store for pre-order, this new Ethernet adapter works exactly like the old one.
Right now, we don’t know how much this new “Power + Ethernet” adapter will cost for the Chromecast, but we were told it’s supposed to be launching today for pre-order.
