Ethernet Not Working on IPhone X IOS version 16.2

I have been using an Ethernet Adapter for my IPhone X for the last 2 years and for some reason it has stopped working. I took my iPhone to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store and they were of no help. The only recommendation they had was for me to update the operating system. I have updated the operating system but I'm still unable to use the ethernet. I also tried the Apple Store ethernet adapter and that didn't work either.



Please help.


iPhone 6, iOS 11

I did! I had an appointment at Genius Bar and spoke to technical support. They both had no solution. The adapter actually works! I don't think Apple makes an adapter for ethernet. If they did, then surely the Genius Bar and technical support would have suggested it.


I'm not sure why Apple makes it difficult to use the Iphone over the ethernet, but it is making me seriously consider switching phones. I've been an Iphone user since they launched but I will not use a phone that doesn't allow ethernet access.
