    Can I connect a windows 11 laptop to the iPad Pro with ethernet cable and run a spacedesk connection?

    Just trying to see if this is possible before buying an Ethernet to usb dongle. It would be a completely wired connection.

    Hi @struct2009,

    Theoretically, it should work with the use of an ethernet adapter, But please note that this feature has not been fully tested yet. so it may or may not work on some devices.
    Another option that you can try is by using USB tethering on your iPad Pro, provided that the device supports it.
    please check the chapter “Troubleshooting -> Network Connection” in the user manual https://forum.spacedesk.netuser-manual/#item_489.

    FYI: native iOS USB cable support is expected to be available in late 2023.

    Thanks. It’s probably best to wait for the usb support later this year.
