I have not found a way to convert it to a ethernet plug maybe you can use a reverse Networking USB to Ethernet Adaptor but is kind of like making your computer a modem which makes it unlikely. This question is most likely needed for people that need to connect their game systems to the internet from only a ethernet plug but however can buy a WIFI adaptor. Unless your ISP requires you to need a internet browser to log into the internet this makes the WIFI adaptor worthless because your game systems don't have internet browsers. But if you buy a "Synet Windy31 USB Wireless Router" you can route your "USB Modem" though your "Portable Computer" and through your "Synet Windy31 USB Wireless Router" and wireless through your "Game Systems WIFI" you have internet. But this can really strip away your internet speed from 10Mps to 3Mps. It's a complicated, expensive and electricity wasting procedure but works for gamers sake. If anybody has found a way to just the 1st question without alternative ways please write back.
