I am trying to connect my laptop with an ethernet cable. I believe I have a standard RF-45 cable but it doesn't fit. Can you provide the specs for the connector I need or is there an adapter of some sort? thank you

Hi, @Darth_Blader
I have a HP 255 G7 notebook that uses the same case as yours.
There is a plastic guard/door that partially covers the ethernet port.
You have to gently push down on that covering and it will swing down and reveal the full size port.

Connecting to a wired network—LAN (select products only) Use a LAN connection if you want to connect the computer directly to a router in your home (instead of working wirelessly), or if you want to connect to an existing network at your office.Connecting to a LAN requires an RJ-45 (network) cable and a network jack or an optional docking device or expansion port, if there is no RJ-45 jack on the computer.To connect the network cable, follow these steps:1.Plug the network cable into the network jack (1) on the computer.2.Plug the other end of the network cable into a network wall jack (2) or router.NOTE:If the network cable contains noise suppression circuitry (3), which prevents interference from TV and radio reception, orient the circuitry end of the cable toward the computer
