## Summary

Raspberry Pi only supports a limited set of ethernet dongles.  See the list.  You must use Raspberry Pi OS and not Ubuntu/Debian.

The two that you can get on Amazon are:

- [TP-Link UE300](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YUU3KC6?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER) - USB 3.0.  Dongle is really short and hard to position, but it works.
- [TRENDNet TU2-ET100](https://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Ethernet-Network-Compatible-TU2-ET100/dp/B00007IFED)  - USB 2.0.  Has a long ship time.
