Ethernet is not a device, it is software protocol. There is hardware to implement the protocol, e.g. NICs, switches, hubs, etc.

To connect embedded Ethernet to a device, you typically use an Ethernet controller or module that interfaces with the device's microcontroller via protocols like SPI or UART. First, ensure the microcontroller has the necessary GPIO pins for the Ethernet module. Then, configure the Ethernet settings (IP address, subnet mask, etc.) in the device's firmware. Finally, establish a physical connection using an Ethernet cable to connect the module to a network switch or router.
To connect your device to the internet using an Ethernet cable adapter for the wall, simply plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the adapter and the other end into your device's Ethernet port. This will establish a wired connection to the internet through the wall adapter.
"PCI communications device" is displayed in the Device Manager when Windows does not have a driver for a PCI device that is used for networking in some fashion. It could be a dial-up modem, Ethernet controller, or a wireless card. You will need to download drivers from your computer manufacturer to display a more specific name in the Device Manager and make the yellow question mark go away.
Ethernet is bi-directional; it both transmits and receives data.
It is a piece of software that is supplied by the device manufacturer.

To test an Ethernet port, you can use a known working Ethernet cable and connect it to a device with a functioning Ethernet port. Check if the device recognizes the connection and can access the network. You can also use a network testing tool to check for connectivity and data transfer speeds.
