| Starting with PlutoSDR Firmware version [[https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/plutosdr-fw/releases/tag/v0.33|v0.33]], M2k ([[https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/m2k-fw/releases/tag/v0.27|v0.27]]) there is now support for selecting the USB Ethernet Compatibility Mode by setting/changing the ''usb_ethernet_mode'' variable. | Starting with PlutoSDR Firmware version [[https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/plutosdr-fw/releases/tag/v0.33|v0.33]], M2k ([[https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/m2k-fw/releases/tag/v0.27|v0.27]]) there is now support for selecting the USB Ethernet Compatibility Mode by setting/changing the ''usb_ethernet_mode'' variable. The main industry protocols are (in chronological order): Remote NDIS ([[wp>RNDIS]], a Microsoft vendor protocol), Ethernet Control Model ([[wp>Ethernet_over_USB|ECM]]), and Network Control Model ([[wp>Ethernet_over_USB|NCM]]) - all supported by both Pluto and M2k. You may need to change this based on your host PC operating system type: |

| The platform you are testing on - needs to support high power USB 2.0 devices (500mA). (iPad will support, iPhone will not). | As you can see - the default of RNDIS does not work on Mac OS (sorry).
