Hello all.

I want more than one Eth port.
Is there a way to do that ? Or is there anyone tried USB-Ethernet
converter ?

Thank you.

the Ethernet port on Panda is already a USB ethernet port in fact!

you can add as many as you want, it might even be plug and play...

add more usb based ethernet ports is generally fully supported by most
distros such as ubuntu on pandaboard.

in addition depending on your bandwidth requirements there are a
number of SPI based ethernet chips available which can be connected
via the expansion header.
