Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I have a OnePlus5T that runs PostmarketOS (console, no GUI). I use pmbootstrap to flash the image and it serves me well for the most part. To make the internet connection more stable, I wish to connect the phone to the router using an Ethernet adapter.

I have borrowed a Porttonics Ethernet 8in1 adapter and works well on other stock android phones. I can use ethernet nicely and surf sites on those phones

I seem to be unable to do this with Postmarket OS. Based on what i have read, I think the kernel needs to be tweaked so it can connect and work with the router. Does anyone know how to do this?

(This is my second post on this topic. Apologies).
