    this is an essential for IT Admins who need to access a network to troubleshoot. Laptops that have ethernet are getting harder to find, so this comes in clutch and is a real time saver when you don't have the wifi password, or the signal doesn't reach to the basement where the network equipment is.

    I had a problem with my docking station at work. I was able to buy this USB connector for my laptop to directly connect the ethernet to it bypassing the docking station until it was replaced. This USB connector provided a nice workaround. If the same issue happens again, it will be on hand as a temporary fix.

    Great Alternative Console Device

    This item worked perfectly for me! I needed to setup a console for an IBM iSeries Power 6. The days of twinax for these machines are long gone, but I did not want to keep changing the ethernet adapter in my PC to accommodate a fixed IP address on the iSeries that I was attempting to connect to, so I bought this and switched to it when I wanted to connect to the console on the iSeries. I now have TCPIP set up on the iSeries and can use iAccess for Windows, but if I ever need to log into a console session, this will be my connection device.

    Does the job for computers w/o built in Ethernet

    Simple device that gets the needed job done. My 2019 iMac doesn't have a built in Ethernet jack and when I switched to a fiber internet company the provided wifi is 6e - which is excellent for all of my other devices but I got crap speeds on that iMac because it's meant for wifi 5. I have an Ethernet jack in my home office so it only made sense to get an adapter and this was also affordable

    I did a speed test and got 100Mb/s, which is probably the speed of the network. I got the model that connects to USB A instead of C because my Chromebook charges through the USB C port. Very simple, reliable connection.
