USB to HDMI for internet connection
Can you use the USB port on the back of the xfinity box, convert to HDMI, and plug into a Chrome Book to directly connect to the internet (instead of wireless)?

What I think you want is a USB to Ethernet adapter such as this:

And an ethernet cable.

Thanks. Then what would work for a Chromebook? How do I get a direct internet connection instead of wifi?
