    Just what I needed!

    I went looking for a USB-C to ethernet adapter last minute yesterday. I saw one of these left in stock and took the plunge. It works exactly like expected for my MacBook Air (M2 2022). After plugging it in, I turned off my wifi and verified the USB LAN connection. I'm getting upload/download speeds identical to my plan (100mbps/100mbps) with minimal latency. No need to worry about laggy connections during internet exams or streaming. Would recommend. Also, note that the box design differs from what's shown here.

    Lightning fast down/uploads

    I purchased this Insignia USB-C ethernet adapter on the advice of my neighbor. I’ve been struggling with pitiful wifi 60 meg download and 27 meg upload speeds for years. Now with a Cat 6 ethernet cable and this adapter and no multiport hub, going straight into the back of my wired/wireless Verizon internet connection I am regularly experiencing downloads in excess of 700 megabytes and uploads over 850 megabytes per second on my HP Spectre laptop.

    Small but super useful — works exactly as expected

    I picked this up not expecting much, but it actually ended up being one of those small accessories I use all the time. Setup was instant — just plug and go, no issues at all. The build quality feels solid for the price, and it doesn’t feel flimsy like some cheaper adapters I’ve tried before. The connection is stable and consistent, and I haven’t had any dropouts or performance issues while using it. What I like most is how convenient and compact it is. It’s easy to carry around or keep plugged in without getting in the way. Definitely a simple upgrade that makes everyday use smoother. Overall, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do, and it does it well. I’d recommend it to anyone needing a reliable, no-hassle solution.

Questions & Answers
  • I would like to hard wire my Motorola Edge Plus 2023 phone to my Linksys. Can I use an ethernet cable to connect my Linksys to this adapter and plug my phone into the C port to reduce wifi and radiation exposure? Would I be able to receive & make calls?

    Yes, you can use the Insignia USB-C to Ethernet Adapter to connect your Motorola Edge Plus 2023 to your Linksys router. This adapter supports USB-C to Ethernet conversion, allowing you to establish a wired internet connection. However, while this setup will provide a stable internet connection and potentially reduce Wi-Fi exposure, it won't affect your ability to make or receive calls. Phone calls typically use cellular networks, which are separate from your internet connection. So, you should still be able to make and receive calls as usual. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
