Hello Erel,
my Tablet got an Ethernet Connector and WiFi.
WiFi works great together with the B4A Bridge.
The Ethernet Plug does not work with B4A Bridge.
Because this Tablet is just been used for Development it is
fixed with PSU and Ethernet and it would be great to use the
Ethernet.

There is no Error Message, on the Tablet i try Wifi, but
the Connect Message say's Not Connected in B4A Bridge.

On the PC i only got the choice Bluetooth or Wifi.
I try WiFi with the correct IP, but it won't connect.

It should work with an ethernet connection. The device may not show the correct IP address. You can however check the address under Settings - Networks - Advanced.

Hello Erel,
i now looked again, the Tablet reports in the first Line:

My IP: Not connected to wireless network.

I changed the IP (different or not from WiFi).

I Think the fixed Ethernet Port is something like Eth0 and wireless is Eth1.
So it must some how be possible to change this for the B4A Bridge.

On the PC Side it should work anyway, i agree.

Solved:

I must have in the IP Settings of the fixed Ethernet inside the Tablet exactly the same like it would be with WiFi.
Then i started the Network again on the Tablet and opend B4A Bridge.

My IP: Not connected to wireless network.
Status: Connected

Thank you Erel and sorry about the confusion.
