Ethernet/USB HUB HAT Expansion Board for Raspberry Pi 5/4B/3B+/3B/2B/Zero/Pi Zero W/Pi Zero 2W,with RJ45 10/100M Ethernet Port (Based on RTL8152B Chip) and Three USB Ports,Compatible with USB2.0/1.1

To use with openwrt you need to add in the firmware selector: kmod-usb-net-rtl8152, leave a space between the other entries, I put it at the very start of the top section. There is another kmod-rtl8152, but that is for PCI bus and wont work for this. People having trouble with the board to board usb connectors being tight, the stand offs aren't quite the right height the usb bits get squished, I used two small washers on each end to fit perfectly. Note that on mine, the bottom usb connecter is stuck in place and there is no way I can tug on it any harder with out the risk of failure. I flashed the zero 2 board to boot usb drive first, (yes that is a thing) but had not luck booting from a usb and this hat, just a fun test so I really didn't stick with it so you might be able to make it work. Usb ports do work.

Works well been so far so good

Well made board and it fit right onto a Pi Zero W I used to set up a Pi-Hole (DNS sink hole)--it's definitely worth looking into it, is very easy and you can find YouTube tutorials ad-nauseum. I read some of the reviews that talked about the GPIO pins not fitting, but I had no issue. To be fair, I used the USB connector and didn't have to use GPIO. The board connection is solid and the device is connected to my network in my IT closet, working for over a week non-stop without issue. I would definitely buy this again. I wish there were a case that would go with this, but if you're making PCBs, you're probably not in the case-making space too.

EDIT 2/7/22, I'm revising this review (and bumping it to 4 starts) The HAT was pretty much useless UNLESS you FLIP the little USB jumper the correct way. It is an OTG jumper (but thanks to the previous poster that talked about cutting pin 4/5, etc) and i looked at the circuit and noticed the traces.. and went "ooohhh yeah" So once you mount the hat on the Pi, and plug in the USB jumper correctly, the RED leds on the USB ports on top of the hat will light up! THE GOOD: the onboard ethernet is plenty fast and solid.. THE BAD" no instructions to tell you which way the OTG USB adapter goes (you got a 50/50 chance) I'll rate this 4/5 because there was NO instructions or info on this and I assume that most people on here got lucky right off the bat! :)

I don't use these little devices like as if they're a PC, I need them for embedded sensors. Therefore these are good for that purpose however I have found that there is not much support when it comes to libraries for C++ code and you will need to write or modify just about everything you find to work with this device as it is different then your Orange Pi 2w but seems to have a more C++ support. With that being said it is a good little product much better than the ESP32.

Mine came in on time! tested it out, found that the part that connects the micro usb ports together doesnt work at all, never has since I got it. Tried contacting Seller/waveshare, got response,they sent me an replacement that worked just fine

Was missing the usb to usb bridge connector. Order a replacement will be updating review if it comes with the nessesarry part.

This HAT lets you connect a Raspberry Pi Zero to Ethernet without making it huge or drawing a ton of power. As an added bonus, you get 3 USB ports! You can't connect 3 hubs filled with devices to them, for example, but I doubt anyone really wants to do that and doesn't already know they'll need external power sources. It's small and it does as advertised, well enough that I can't really complain about anything.

I connected this to my USB DAC and used the Raspberry Pi as a music server using MoOde Audio OS. This is a cheap way to get to get a high quality music server. It is nearly as good sounding as a much more expensive Raspberry Pi USB Hat that is designed for audio (which I will not name).

zero2wに刺しただけで普通に使えている。zero2w用の電源用USBケーブルが付いているのも良い。付属のネジでそのまま固定してすぐ使えた。

Agrega puertos usb y ethernet.

Like most of the Waveshare products, this module is inexpensive, seems quite well designed, and works as expected. I tested it on a Raspberry Pi Zero running Raspian 11 (bullseye) with a 5.10.63 kernel. The kernel immediately recognised the High Speed USB hub on the board, and used it to configure the RTL8152B Ethernet controller without any additional drivers or configuration. The system picked up a DHCP address and was able to connect to the Internet through my router without any obvious problems. It is a little weird mechanically, with one side of the board supported by the little OTG-to-MicroB jumper board that is used to pick up the Pi's single OTG USB port in host mode. The other side of the board is supported by a pair of standoffs that are a bit short for the standard connector I had soldered to the Pi, but a thin washer avoids any stress on the board. Waveshare provides schematics for the board, which is nice. All around, I am pleased with my purchase.

The usb ports do not work. They do not recognise mouse or keyboard making the unit usless.
