A couple weeks ago i made a post about my switch having a burnt out wifi connection chip (2110-1118) and I ended up getting a new switch entirely,

Would I be able to hook up my old switch by ethernet and be able to do a data transfer through that?

･ The Nintendo Switch OLED's dock with an ethernet port is also an option for all original Switch version (Except the Switch Lite).

￮ Note:
･ LAN adapter works better with the USB port on the back of your dock.
･ You can use an USB-A to USB-C adapter for handheld/tabletop mode or with Switch Lite.
･ Aside from official ones, other LAN adapters may make the Switch slightly heat up in sleep mode. You can get rid of this by turning off the always connect setting in System Settings > Sleep Mode > Maintain Internet Connection in Sleep Mode.
