Hello,
I've been looking through monitors that have USB C support so that I can connect my laptop to the monitor and use it as a KVM to switch between my laptop and PC. I am planning on connecting my mouse + keyboard and a USB ethernet adapter so that my laptop will use ethernet from the monitor.
So my question is, if a monitor supports the ability to pass the mouse + keyboard through to the USB C port into the device (aka my laptop), would it also pass ethernet if i connect it into the USB ports on the monitor? Or would it have to be strictly marketed as something like Thunderbolt where it's guaranteed that it passes ethernet through the USB C port. It's not clear based on how the monitors are marketed in the specs and I couldn't really find a clear answer anywhere cause I know USB C has the ability to handle ethernet but I just don't know if that means if a monitor has a USB C output that it can automatically handle ethernet.
