    These things are mandatory for the newer laptops that only have USB 3 jacks. I got two because I have a lot of legacy gear and cables that predated USB 3. Works fine. Lasts a long time. Won't rust. Won't bust. It's a product you can trust.

    The good news: the latest MacBook Pro models are super-slim. The bad news: that slimness means a standard Ethernet port is too tall for the machine's exterior. Which means you need a Thunderbolt-to-Ethernet adapter if you want a hard-wired Ethernet connection. At home I use a Thunderbolt dock which gives me that connection plus many more; but on the road I suddenly realized I was out of luck without one of these. Grabbed it up and it works perfectly with no major tweaking necessary.

    My router is not on another floor so I wire connect wherever possible. I did speed tests and a wireless connection is about 50%, 40% slower than wired. Now that KRACK may be unresolved on your ISP Modem/Router, turn off wireless and stick to wired for a safer and faster connection. My white Apple - Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter has been great. So I have seen on occasion nearly 200Mbps on a 150 Mbps connection. It is well worth the price.

    I would highly recommend this little dongle over the USB Ethernet adapter for MacBook Airs and older Pros and iMacs. It's the same price as the USB adapter at $29.00, but it supports Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps) speeds, which is way faster than the 10/100 Mbps max that the USB adapter has. I know a lot of people complain that the Thunderbolt to Gb Ethernet doesn't last long, but I use it a lot and have not had any issues

    Adaptors are never convenient except when they are Exactly what you need. Everyone uses wifi for everything these days so t makes sense to remove Ethernet ports from laptops, but when those moments arise that call for a hard line connection, this adapter is exactly what's needed. It's small enough to travel with and it not be hard to pack. It's design is compact enough to not be a burden to travel with. It's just ideal and made with quality.

    My Retina MBP doesn't have a ethernet jack, got a new ISP and wasn't getting the wi fi speed i was promised. In order to verify if I was getting the speed purchased I needed to go direct wired connection to the modem ( take out any potential bottle necks), so this was a required purchase to do that. Hooked it up and BOOM super fast speed was there !!! So need a new router to get wi fi up to speed. This worked first time every time with no issues at all.
