HP 14" Touchscreen 2-in-1 Chromebook - Intel Pentium Silver - 1080p
Chrome OS

My HP 14" Touchscreen 2-in-1 Chromebook - Intel Pentium Silver - 1080p from Costco does not have an ethernet connection. Is there an adapter available or other way to add  an ethernet connection to this chromebook?

Thank you,

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

To get the answer to this question, it's not possible to change or add additional components on the motherboard configuration, To connect to a wired network: Plug in your USB-Ethernet adapter in the Chromebook and plug the ethernet cable into the adaptor. The Chrome OS will configure the Ethernet adapter via DHCP; there is no other configuration needed.

 

NOTE: HP does not recommend upgrading or downgrading hardware parts or software that is bundled with the product as It may affect the manufacturer's warranty and performance, however, you could change the configuration at your own discretion.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
