Wifi Enet adapter - spacey - 08-23-2024

Anyone tried using Orbit with a Wifi Enet adapter?

Something like this one: https://www.autoobd.de/wholesale/vxscan-obd-enet-adapter-for-bmw-vw-volvo.html?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAApn1JERGrDDx70C1P3Uu7pkIpLBS8&gclid=CjwKCAjw5qC2BhB8EiwAvqa41s6gEWSEa4lXcdwr-SrGSm1L_PgZzl4r3fy2yi1ieAmsxq7WHCdkshoCQCgQAvD_BwE

If it's only for reading "Diagnoses" maybe I would use such cheap adaptor because those cheap ODB2 devices sometimes short inside and burn the ODB2 port especially when they are powered by the ODB2 port. 

I would definitely not use such adaptors for writing to the car.  If something goes wrong with the communication during the flashing, it can brick the car.
