Works just like expected. Easy to use, I did have to restart the laptop to use.

Thunderbolt and Ethernet go hand in hand! This adapter is fast, reliable, and WORKS! No need for any software to be installed!

This product is a must if you need to connect to ethernet. Didn’t give me any problems.

Great adaptor to provide 1GB wired connection for macbook. Not overly expensive, however there are now also USB-3.0 GB adaptors also available.

works perfectly. plug and play, and spectacular throughput since the CPU doesn't have load like it would a USB adapter. very handy!

Works well. Does what it is meant to do. Slightly expensive as it is an apple product, but really the only thunderbolt to ethernet option out there.

My MacBook Air did not have an standard ethernet port, but I already knew that I had found and used other Thunderbolt connector adapters and looked for this one to add to my collection. I use this to speed up my internet connection vs. wifi when I have the availability of internet via ethernet cable. I also use it to hard wire connect to my home network to help troubleshoot an internet out situation to diagnose whether he problem is coming from the cable modem or just the wifi router signal.

Needed a ethernet port for my older MacBook Pro. I have gigabit ethernet and wanted to boost my speed.

Small, compact, and easy to use. This fits in any sleeve or carrying case or even in your pocket. Simple to set up, and you are ready to go.

Price is the same anywhere. It's an Apple product that let's you cord your Macbook. It's easy and requires no set-up. Just plug it in, put the Ethernet cord in and it works. I have a 100MPS internet set-up with Time Warner, using their Wifi box. The speed is the same with or without the Wifi. So I was a little disappointed that my speed didn't increase but that's more on the Macbook Wifi being so awesome. It's small so I can just keep it in my bad for times when I might need it.

Apple - Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter - White Needed to get my internet up to speed with a new cable. This worked perfectly!

I have used other adaptors not made by apple and they were not as reliable. This one always works no matter what. Spend the extra money.

Apple network adapter. Same product, same price as the Apple Store. Works great - zippy wired connection with my laptop.

This is perfect. Super easy. Just plug it in and you get a fast, wired connection.

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.

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.

My WIFI speed recently was very bad. I have to switch to a wire connection. The macbook pro(2012) does not support direct LAN connection. so this Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, to me, is a must-have( USB-to-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is also OK, but my macbook pro has only two USB ports, which I use heavily. so I don't want have one of them be taken by the ethernet adapter) . It has been 1 week since I got it. so far it works very well.

This product more than met my expectation. It truly is a plug and play which connects internet at very high speeds.

this does exactly what it says it does. Very useful.
