    Fast Shipping and Limited Plug and play

    This adapter worked will in Microsoft Windows eg- 10. Worked on Kali Linux, however didn't work on my Raspberry pi 2 which ran Open-Wrt and Ubuntu Mate. Couldn't find the updated supporting drivers for raspberry pi. Also no drivers are provided with the device. Works on windows with Realtek rtl8153 drivers- downloadable. Fast shipping- Arrived before expected date.

    NIC constantly disconnects -- unusable with usb 3.0

    Was looking forward to using this product. However it doesn't work with any usb 3.0 connection. Constantly disconnects and is unusable. Could only get it to work with external usb 2.0 hub on a Windows 10 64bit desktop. With a notebook running same OS I couldn't get it to work at all. I tried 3 or 4 different drivers also. None was any better that the other. Perhaps the problem is still driver related. Any body get it to work? How did you do it.

  • Inexpensive, life saver

    This is one of the best purchase I've made, my work is 50% faster. I now have to use one device instead of two, thanks to this little tool and this company's that make them so affordable.

  • It does the job

    my batteries don't get overheated when I charge them now, better than the branded one I was using to charge my batteries.

  • Realtek Chipset Gigabit Ethernet Dongle

    I have successfully used this dongle with conventional devices and Chrome devices. It takes a little more time for this device to be announced to ChromeOS, but it WILL be recognized. This dongle incorporates the Realtek chipset, and this supports 9 kiB "jumbo" frames, whereas competitive dongles support 2 kiB "jumbo" frames. I bought one, liked it, and then bought two more. A "repeat buy" is certainly my strong recommendation of a product! I use these on Chromebooks and other devices which either have no Ethernet port at all, or only a 10/100 Ethernet port. I have also used these on Chromeboxes which already have a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, for debugging purposes. I highly recommend this dongle!

  • Solid built / works great

    After finding the appropriate drivers on the internet for my Macbook Pro, this device works great. Connected via USB 3 gives reasonable Gigabit speeds. The device driver is also very good at recognising insert/removal of the device and connections come up quickly. My only real wish would be that the device were a bit physically smaller. If you are someone who regularly needs ethernet with your Mac to e.g. configure networking equipment etc., this device is a great choice.

  • PERFECT FOR CHROMEBOOK

    If a laptop has no ethernet port but at least 2 regular female USB port this device is perfect for a wired and safe connection. I use it with my Chromebook.

  • Ethernet where are you?

    The perfect fit for a computer on which you've upgraded the OS and the on board Ethernet connection lost its driver. (Yes Dorthy, it happens). Plug this in, go on line, get a driver update program and fix the original problem. Or use with one of the newer notebooks that no longer comes with an Ethernet connection.

  • Cheap and easy adapter

    Windows 10 by default has a working driver so just plug it in and it works. Speed is about 970Mb/s which with overhead etc. is as close to 1Gb/s as you can expect a cheap adapter to go and is more than enough anyway.

  • Great backup plan

    Needs drivers (Realtek rtl8153 chipset) if you're on Windows but Linux so far has them built in. This is speedy and worth looking up the specs to see all the features Realtek has built in, a lot of them. In conclusion, buy this.
