RJ45 connection?

Can anyone confirm an RJ45 port on the keyboard dock? As most tech gadget followers know reviews can be a major source of misinformation so I'm looking for clarification.

Thanks,

i've heard about an RJ45 jack from some forum posts.. but I've watched several youtube videos showing the entire tablet and dock and I didn't see one... the dock has a covered usb port on either side, a place to plug the power cord in and a full-size sd card slot, and thats it

no saying a rooted transformer couldn't support a usb rj45 in the future :)
 
I've never seen any indication that the Transformer has an RJ45 jack. Asus has a Windows slate that does look to have this however.
 
A tablet newb here and I just got a Transformer w/dock. There is no RJ45 port but have been looking for how it can be done. The dock does have two USB ports and I needed to get an USB to RJ45 adapter anyway for something else so I thought I'd try it out. I found 3 in Fry's and got the Linksys USB300M [accidentally] as there was one which said it was recognized by by OS10.6, Win7, Linux, TiVo, Wii, Nintendo and others made by TrendNet I think but grabbed the wrong one. There was another made by Sabrent but the store was closing and had to go. The Linksys is unrecgnized as having even inserted anything into the USB port.There is also another slot for an SD card. Any help would be great appreciated. Thanks. -ct

You'll have to get the correct drivers, then figure out how to make that work with the TCP/IP stack, then etc...

I've heard you can now run Linux on the TF. That might already have the drivers you'd need to run such a device..
