Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Easiest way to add ethernet to your laptop
I was extremely surprised by how heavy this adapter is, it's made out of aluminum and is very sturdy. I did not have to install drivers or anything, I just plugged it in and literally within five seconds I had an ethernet connection to the Internet with gigabyte speed plugged into a USB 3.0 port!!! As usual J5 Create did a great job with this adapter.

Worth every penny. Just plug and play.
Hassle free. Plug and play. It’s really annoying when simple adapters don’t work right way. This just works. Worth every penny. I use it for my Nintendo Switch and a PC where I need the extra RJ45 port.
