This adapter is a must have with newer MacBooks if you want to have a good wired ethernet connection. Works great so far. If thunderbolt sticks around it will be eventually possible to get up to 20 gb of ethernet speed. Although, there is no way to know whether thunderbolt will be around for long, it is still the best way to connect wired ethernet to new MacBooks.

Since my MacBook Air 13" is so slim there's no room for an Ethernet Port, this allows my Mac to connect at Gigabit Ethernet speed which I appreciate. Dongles suck, no way around it, but this one works well.

Works as expected. Simple plug and play. Very handy.

very simple device...easy to use, but a bit bulky. does what it should

If you need a Ethernet plug on your macbook, this is for you! I do a lot of file transferring over my network and wanted something faster than the wireless speed available. This did the trick and was immediately recognized by my mac for easy plug-and-use action. I would definitely recommend. The only negative is the price. Pretty steep for a cable.

A Game changer,I buy apple Thunderbolt cables and dongles and it’s always excellent build quality.I watched a video that someone was challenging the price and the internal chip was mind blowing,they took apart and showed the design and detail.

Works perfectly as described! Finally reached the fastest speeds available!

I needed a network adapter for my Mac Air. I purchased one at OfficeMax that was slightly cheaper but you had to install software and run it each time you wanted to use it. I bought this and it was plug and play from the start and has worked seamlessly each time I have used it. It is compact and user friendly, I would definitely recommend this product.

Like it says plug it in and starts to work right away. Works great with my MBP. Apple - Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter - White Connect your Thunderbolt-equipped Mac to a high-performance 10/100/1000Base-T network with this Apple® MD463ZM/A Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet adapter that features a built-in cable for simple setup.

Frankly, I use wireless more often than wired enet w my MacBook Pro. Had and issue w wifi speed at home. Diagnostic test was to plug enet cord into my modem to test speed before wifi. Well, no enet plug, so I needed this adapter. Won't be a high use item, but when needed it works great.

Works great. Super fast internet. Simple plug and play.

This adapter allows you to connect directly to a router and/or modem. Simple plug and play for all RJ45 connections needed to your MacBook Pro. The adapter is about 4" long and a very well made Apple product.

If you have a newer Mac that doesn't have an either-net port you have to carry one of these with you. I tried one of the off brand and I could never get the drivers to work, so I bought this one and it works just great. The only problem I have is I only have the one Thunderbolt port on my Air and there is no daisy chaining with this.

Use it to directly wire connect MacBook Pro to router. End up with quicker internet speed. As with most genuine Apple products, they just work. Could've gone with cheaper one from another company but after spending almost $3k for the computer saving 20bucks isn't worth it. One less thing to worry about.

This is what you need if you want to hard wire to your modem instead of using wifi on a computer without a ethernet port. Of course you'll need a USB C port, but when using this it is fast. It's a bit more reliable than wifi for me.

If you user your laptop in closed clamshell mode, then you want the speed of a desktop solution. Unfortunately wifi is less then an ideal solution in this scenario, and with no ports Apple isn't doing you any favors. Thankfully there is this adapter, it is a blessing.

An Apple TBolt-to-Ethernet dongle for an Apple computer... can't get any better then an that. Plug it in and connect to a network circuit, it grabs an IP address (if there is a DHCP server available to provide an IP address) and works just fine, as all Apple products do.

With Apple, you always need something additional to make it play nice with your other technologies. But, it works great. Did what I needed.

Straight up plug and play. I got it off the open box which saved a couple of bucks. Apple products just work so I was scared off a third-party. It doesn’t disappoint and it does speed up my Internet speed

I didn't realize Thunderbolt had the ability to adaptor to Ethernet as an additional high speed connection for the WDMyCloud I own. Thus far, this adapter works well, I am further testing the speed transfer rates but the GB speeds should be more than sufficient.
