    I can now use a gigabit ethernet connection on my Macbook Pro. Very satisfied with the performance, just wish Apple would make these adaptors more reasonably priced.

    So we get the new college boy a brand new Apple laptop for college because he absolutely had to have it. Of course Apple no longer has half the ports you need so you have to buy accessories to make the thing work like my ten year old MacBook Pro does. The dorm room has ethernet connection so off to the Best Buy to get him set up. Sales guy says this will do the trick and apparently it does since the kid never said otherwise. Just like the tuition,room,board, books that you never hear "Thank you" for...

    I desperately needed ethernet service as I work primarily online and do a lot of video conferencing. My wifi wasn't keeping up and it was time to upgrade as I start a new business. The first ethernet connector I got would not connect and bring the speed to my laptop. I went to the Geek Squad and this was recommended. I haven't had a problem since, and the quality of the video conferences is much, much, much, much better! I now come across in conferences as the professional I know myself to be.

    I needed a way to hard wire into my 1 Gig Fiber internet connection on my macbook pro. This thunderbolt port did the job. Very easy to install and switch the connection from wifi to thunderbolt.

    Thankfully the salesperson realized I needed this accessory when I bought my new MacBook Pro, as I mentioned having hard-wired Internet at the office. Just plug it in and use! Easy!

    Excellent Product but Needs Better Design

    I bought this product to record Google Hangouts On Air on my Mac Book Pro which requires a wired (not wireless) connection for smooth quality. It works great. However, this is a product meant to be used mostly with Apple laptops. If you put the laptop on your lap the dongle that comes out is just long enough to hook on the edge of whatever pants you are wearing. The dongle length either needs to be much shorter and less costly or it needs to be longer so that it does not catch on your pant leg if you are sitting down with your laptop. The designers failed to keep in mind that laptops are, in fact, often used on LAPS. A big mistake in my opinion since the catching on my pants is rather annoying. It's an annoying design issue that I hope they will correct in the future. $30 is a bit much for this little thing despite the technology inside. All in all I would recommend it if you absolutely need a Thunderbolt to Ethernet plugin for your internet connection to improve, your speed and quality of connection.

    I got this for my son when he went off to college. The Wifi at his school is super slow, but they provide ethernet connections to each dorm room. His Macbook Pro didn't have an ethernet adapter, but using this adapter into a Thunderbolt port allowed him to quickly and easily connect to the ethernet and utilize high-speed access for his online classes. It's a bit expensive as all Apple products are, but works well and is high quality.

    This product helps boost up my internet speed when my wifi is going kind of slow. It made my internet connection anywhere from 2,000kb/s through 4,500kb/s faster. I highly recommend this product, especially for those who use internet where there are many others also using the internet.
