I'm sure it will with the current code only work on WiFi. Now I did a 
few small tests; I noticed that at least for Android 14 there are no 
Ethernet settings when I plug in a USB-C Ethernet dongle. (Are you aware 
of any?)

For ChromeOS that's different; I noticed 802.1x settings, but no API to 
configure this from the App.

We'll focus on the last development items for the WiFi version first, 
but will put it on our list to check on afterwards!

Groeten,
