Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchased this item for MacBook. It does not work.

This adapter slowed rather than speeded data flow.

I need one of these adapters weekly while I'm in hotel, an heard this one would work. Unfortunately it doesn't, my chromebook never recognized it.

It was bad I got a computer order ed the cord didn't get any best buy points and had to go back to store 40 plus miles! ! To get it....

I bought it for my yoga2 pro since it does not have a LAN port. I returned it because it is not compatible.

I bought this as a last hope in connecting my Wii U to my home network. Not only did the product not accomplish that, the plastic part housing the USB came off upon removing it from the USB port. I usually have no complaints about Insignia products, but in this case I'd say it's worth spending the extra money on a more quality product.

I asked for an ethernet adapter to use on my Mac; the CD for installation is not useable on a MacBook Air and there is no online software to install that actually works. The adapter is NOT Mac supported and should not be sold for this purpose. I am disappointed that the sales person was not aware of this, or did not mention it.

This adapter requires a CD drive to install neccessary software.

I purchased this for the Wii U since Wii U does not have a Ethernet port. Unfortunately the Wii U did not detect it and I was forced to return it.

Product would not work. drivers stopped at win 7. I could not find support online either. not best buys fault. just a bad product.

Adapter is working as advertised, but the driver comes on a CD. If you are using the new 2015 Macbook, there is no optical drive; only the USB C port. The correct driver is at the link below: http://www.insigniaproducts.com/cms/files/NS-PU98505_NS-PU98505-C_Driver_ML.zip

Poor quality.... Will be returning...I'm unsatisfied with this product. Do not purchase

Need external drive to install software. Should be plug and play.

I was in urgent need of one as my wifi wasn't working well, the laptop didn't have an ethernet port and work was getting affected. Priority was to get one adapter that was readily available for pick up at store and I got this one. I connected the ethernet cable and plugged the device into my laptop and it was instantly showing speeds of 55+ mbps on my 50mbps comcast connection. Saved my day. I don't mind it being USB 2.0 as my laptop has USB 2.0 ports also.

This device has worked for me for about 6 months now and gives a good internet strength. It is super affordable and easy to use as well. But this device did end up breaking where the USB cover is since they use cheap glue. Still works but not good in quality.

I needed to put my Windows 10 PC on two networks at the same time, but have only one RJ45 on my motherboard, so I bought this. Windows recognized the device and loaded a driver from WindowsUpdate (I presume). I never could get the adaptor to work correctly, so I put in the disc that comes with it to load the driver. The disc doesn't have drivers for Windows 10; only up to Windows 8. I went to the manufacturer's website (asix.com) and managed to find the driver for Windows 10 64-bit; loaded it and now it works like a champ. Including drivers for Windows 10 should be done.

Perfect for my Mibox which only has one usb port. Hooked this to the usb hub and works perfect.

Needed the high speed a direct connect has, on my laptop convertible and all it has is USBs. This does the trick just right!

Wow, my fiance bought a new laptop which was very nice her her. I Already had one which was 2 years old nothing wrong with it. But that was a 15 inch This baby is 17 inch and my, my what a difference. My eyes are failing and I love to surf that net. But I didn't say nothing to her about it not having an ethernet port. Anyway, I went to get this insignia adapter and what a difference. Wifi in my house is not that bad but I am on the third floor in my office so with Comcast it tends to drop off during peak hours. Yea we know the Fcc are aware. No time for that. This thing was 20.00 and it's so freaking fast. As far as being on the the wifi in my home it's ok but everybody has a smart TV and a IPhone or samsung devices. 7 people with multiple electronic sources which require some sort of Internet connection, at one time or another the laptops upstairs tend to bog down. I WAS going to get a wifi repeater, but my comcast buddy just ran me some extra cables to other rooms and no worries. Thanks insignia and best buy your always on point.

Worked right of the box with Dell Venue 8 Pro Windows 8.1 tablet, using OTG microUSB to USB adapter.
