Insignia™ - USB Type-C to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter - White

After messing around for a couple of weeks with other USB-C to Gigabit ethernet adapters, including high-end powered and unpowered hubs, I finally have a simple, plug and play, ethernet adapter for my 2018 MacBook Pro that just works. Yes, I plugged it in. And it worked. There were no "drivers" to download and install, no step-by-step network configurations, no tech troubleshooting and waiting for a support response because my Macbook could not "recognize' the other adapters. None of that. I plugged this Insignia adapter in and it IMMEDIATELY connected my MacBook Pro computer to my router via DHCP. I couldn't be happier after all the frustration I experienced with the other, much more expensive, adapters. The Apple tech at Best Buy was kind enough to check online to make sure this adapter wouldn't need a driver and he was on point. He was able to tell me that Apple itself doesn't make one of these specific adapters themselves, which is a bit weird, but also very helpful information. This is an excellent USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. It just works. Right out of the box.

My Internet became unstable. Was the problem from the router or the modem or the DSL line? I needed a direct connection between my laptop and my modem to troubleshoot the problems AND to re-set the modem. This $30 "accessory" from Best Buy worked as well as an Ethernet card inside a computer. My new laptop came without an Ethernet port so this accessory was the only thing allowing me to check my modem's function with certainty. Without it, I could never have convinced my ISP that my Internet instability was on their end, not mine. Thank you, Best Buy, for another great product.

I've tried this make/model/version in five (5) different Lenovo 720's. None of them worked. I pulled out my own Lenovo 730 and it worked well. Try to do some searching for an adapter designed and tested for your particular brand and model of laptop/tablet/2in1. It appears Best Buy only carries this one adapter. I ended up ordering another brand (Cable Matters) online elsewhere and if worked flawlessly.

Had no issues with the product delivering internet to my Dell XPS 9560 on either Windows or Ubuntu. I no longer use the product because my USB-C port is normally occupied by my docking station, which has ethernet built in, but this product is great for anyone that doesn't need a heavy duty (and expensive!) docking station.

I have gigabit fiber and while wireless is fast, I get a fraction of the speed I would like. I use wireless (AC mostly) but in my office, where my fiber modem is, I'm able to hook up directly to my router. Since my Mac doesn't have an Ethernet port, I purchased this adaptor. It's plug and play (once you enable the Ethernet port in network setting.

Bought this for a new MacBook Pro. The new MacBooks don't have Ethernet jacks, in which I needed in order to connect to the network at my office. I bought this so that I could connect and everything worked. One thing I wish is that it could of been a little cheaper. It doesn't do much and the price I paid seemed a little steep.

I was setting up a new network with my MacBook Pro. 90% of the configuration is done wirelessly. However, the initial configuration needs to be done with an actual connection. This adapter works perfectly. I plugged it in and it was instantly recognized and available. I keep this adapter in my bag everywhere I go.

I did not realize that my new laptop did not have an ethernet port until after I got it home and hunted for a place to plug my ethernet cable into. Went to Best Buy and bought this adapter and now have wired connectivity. It works just as it is supposed to and I would definitely recommend this product.
