    This device is a MUST HAVE for an apple laptop. Only downside of the newer models is that they have eliminated the hardline for ethernet connections. This is not great. This solves all that easily and they were smart enough to design the functionality into the thunderbolt ports.

    Recently traveled to Afghanistan and the only internet service was via ethernet port. With my new Mac Book there was no port for this....this adapter ensured I did not have a looooog boring trip! Worked flawlessly!!

    Purchased for my wife to assist with transferring data faster, working great so far. Also, a little bit of advice to Apple, it would really be nice if you guys would add a link light...not a huge deal but would really help with troubleshooting issues.

    The cable is a necessary accessory if you intent to plug in an eathernet cable. Does what it is suposed to for those that need it. Many will not need it unless you need to physically plug in, cannot fault Apple for removing the port because many will not need it.

    I purchased this for my niece as a back up just in case the wifi doesn't work at college so well. While it may be bothersome to have to carry this piece around for the ability to use a LAN cable with MacBook Pro/Retina, it is definitely worth having in a pinch.

    It's a must have adapter if you own a Macbook Pro or any other Apple products which have Thunderbolt port instead of R45 Ethernet port. It is very useful if the wifi signals around you are weak but you do have wired connectivity to use then this powerful adapter works just great.

    Its what we all know it is. A reliable product for our apple devices. Don't bother with cheap alternatives. Buy the manufacturer products. You get what you pay for.

    I just purchased a new MacBook Pro and to my surprise there was no ethernet port .so I went down to my local Best Buy and picked up this ethernet adapter. I need to use an ethernet port so this is a must have for me.

    I purchased a Macbook Pro and didn't realize that there was no Ethernet Port directly available. Since I come from a Windows World, I never anticipated that something so basic would be missing. In any case, I purchased this and it works well and transparently.

    Essentially for working at home, nothing beats a hardwired connection. If you’ve got a Mac, be safe and go with the name branded adaptor. Works perfectly and I’m pulling near 1 Gig on my laptop.

    Pretty simple on this review. It's meant to be an adaptor for an ethernet cord and it's exactly that. Worked great with my MacBook Pro. No connection issues & solved a major issue that I was having. Solid product.

    I purchased these Ethernet adapters for my business. If you need to have a wired Internet connection for your MacBook laptops, this is the only adapter you need. Don't buy 3rd party Ethernet adapters as they require driver installs. These work out of the box.

    This works great. Haven't had any issues with it. Much faster than the USB adapter. Make sure you are using at least Cat 5e cables and a gigabit router or you won't see the speeds.
