Or use a WiFi and/or Blue Tooth USB stick.
I have an Eminent EM1010 USB from/to UTP/RJ45 stick that works fine on
every Pi, and when used together with a mini to normal USB convertercable
it works also perfect at a Pi Zero, both in Raspbian Linux and RISC OS.
You can than use a normal UTP/RJ45 EtherNet cable.
Good luck in connecting your Pi Zero to the network.

Henri.
