Anybody any experience using one of these? Bought it so can have a wired connection on a fire stick in the attic using powerline adapters. When stick the ethernet into this adapter the ethernet light on powerline adapter doesn't light up?!
You would be better with the official ethanet adaptor for £13 from amazon mate
Yes mate 1oo% in my opinion the genuine Amazon one is the bestYou would be better with the official ethanet adaptor for £13 from amazon mate

Look at this on eBay UGreen Ethernet adaptor for Amazon Fire TV stick micro USB to RJ45 Lan network 691161975988 | eBay
Are you powering the firestick from USB on TV,?
It may not be getting enough power to drive the stick and adapter.
Tried the stick downstairs using ethernet directly from the router and still the same, nothing. Should the wired connection detect automatically on the stick? I go into network and it shows disconnected. Options to connect to wireless networks but cant see anything about setting up wired connection on screen. Is it all automatic? ThanksTry a process of elimination. For example. Try the firestick connected to directly to your router, it may be a dodgy ethernet adapter.
What firestick is it as ethanet adaptors only works on 2nd gen and 4k onesTried the stick downstairs using ethernet directly from the router and still the same, nothing.

I Tried one similar to the one you're showing with the same result using TP link power lines with the same results as you are getting,in the end I bought the official Amazon 4k ethernet adapter ran a ethernet cable out from my study down into the living room to the Firestick and it automatically detected it and worked flawless ever since.I was disappointed with the unofficial adapter whether it was a faulty one or it just didn't like power lines I'm not sure I tried all things even running a 15 meter ethernet cable downstairs but the same result couldn't be ars*d to send it back just binned it and got the Amazon oneTried the stick downstairs using ethernet directly from the router and still the same, nothing.
