    I’m seriously thinking of getting a usbC-ethernet dongle for my mobile, for when I’m at my desk.

      If you have wireless charging then you should definitely get the dongle. I have one for those times I need stability. Get a thin lightweight USB C extender so the dongle is not getting in the way.

            I mean I just have more than one port and can charge using the dedicated charging port.

            What laptop are you using that makes it such an affair to use two USB-C ports?

            Edit: I missed the “mobile” part

              If I’m reading the thread correctly, they’re referring to a mobile phone which only has 1 USB port typically

                Ah butts, you’re right, the first guy said “mobile” and I didn’t read it correctly. I can’t figure why they would ever need a connection like that for their phone, though.

      I, too, have shitty wireless. In fact, for my work laptop, that’s exactly what I do. So much more reliable. Way too many wireless connections on too many channels close by.
