[Blackpool] Pi Zero, USB and networking question

[Michael]

Cant see why not.

The first one will have a simple usb - ethernet  adaptor wired in on one
the expansion ports and will show up on the bus as such. The other USB
sockets will just be presented as extra USB sockets as normal

As for the second it looks like a vanilla 4 port usb extender...however not
sure how far I'd be trusting the PSU.
