The Apple iPhone 15 has been a major talking point for the past 2 weeks. Recently, we mentioned how the new modem in the iPhone 15 boosts its internet speed by 24%. However, there is a way for you to take your internet speed to the next level.

Simply said, some people noticed a very interesting detail about the new phone. With the new USB-C port, you can connect it to the Ethernet adapter for a more direct and faster internet connection. This fact was confirmed by Apple itself in a support document last week.

According to the support document, the USB to Ethernet adapters were listed as part of the devices that are compatible with the iPhone 15. Interestingly, when the phone is connected to an ethernet cable, you can see a hidden Ethernet menu in settings. This menu contains IP-related information and various configuration options.

Based on MacRumors, a reader reported a peak download speed of over 800 Mbps in a speed test with the iPhone 15 Pro. Long-time iPhone users might already know about this method. Previously, the Lightning connector also supported Ethernet with an adapter. Regardless, it’s pretty cool to know that you can do the same with the USB-C cable.
