Why would you tether a phone to an ethernet cable? Seems antithetical to the concept of a cell phone.
Not an average use case, but I used to use iPads on a tradeshow floor demonstrating apps and controlling other smarthome devices on a network. Wi-Fi at tradeshows is abysmal at best, so we would connect the lighting to USB adapter, then connect a USB to ethernet dongle for hardwired network that was stable. Worked great for us.
That does make sense. I've done similar shows and yes, the wireless internet is awful.
