Redneck iPad Setup help

Add an AppleTV to the mix. Connect the AppleTV to the monitor. Use AirPlay to send the video from the iPad to the AppleTV.

@kericson alrighty, here's a redneck solution. I think you need to get rid of the apple usb to ethernet connecter

1. Connect this to ipad - https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Lightning-Digital-Adapter-MD826AM/dp/B009WHV3BM

2. Connect HDMI & then connect lightning to this - https://www.amazon.com/Lighting-FA-STAR-Interface-Required-Upgraded/dp/B075V1ZY2C/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539350199&sr=8-3&keywords=lightning+cable+to+usb+female

3. Connect power to charge, connect usb to this - https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-1000-Gigabit-Ethernet-Adapter/dp/B00M77HMU0/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1539350323&sr=8-7&keywords=usb+to+ethernet+adapter+mac

4. Connect Ethernet to that

OR

HDMI + Lightning to Lightning to USB & lightning -> Connect USB to MacBook hardwired and sharing ethernet to 'USB iPhone adapter'

@Hugonaut Ok the first one I have already tried with the 3 Apple adapters, no ethernet connection. Can you explain the last option better? @jhalvorson Will Airplay turn off after so long if the iPad never goes to sleep?

Im thinking you can Connect the iPad to the dual Hdmi & Lightning female adapter, Connect the HDMI Male adapter, then connect a male lightning to male usb, connect male usb into a hardwired macbook. Under sys prefs -> sharing -> Internet Sharing - select 'Share your connect from " Ethernet " ' ' to "computers using" "iPhone USB" '

This way, the iPads Charged, Hooked up to External HD Monitory & getting ethernet internet access from the macbook.

Tested that didn't work either and AirPlay is out. Does anyone know if you get a lightening splitter will only one side to data and the other power?

Has anyone tested this Read Here
I can't get it to work on iOS 11.4 and iOS 12.1

Or has anyone gotten a USB to VGA or HDMI external graphics card adapter to work with a iPad. Then I could use a USB hub for everything.
