    Some issues with drivers, but I got it working. It a fan of this type of solution anyway, there are usually better approaches, but you do what you got to do.

    It was truly plug and play in my case. I had a network port go bad on an older system to which this device fixed. I was back up within a minute of installing it.

    I really enjoyed using this item. I connected one end with a compatible opening in my computer (usb 2.0) and the other end to my Ethernet cable -- and it worked. I like when things work.

    It's a good product but I have my doubts. I'm using it to transfer information from my laptop to My Cloud external hard drive. Sometimes it works and sometimes it's hard to communicate.

    The Ethernet port on my computer was defective, so I replaced it with this Ethernet via USB adapter. Windows 10 recognizes it immediately. It’s been working very well!

    Newer thin line laptops don't come with a wired Ethernet port anymore, so, one of these are a must. This works with my XPS 13 and needed no driver install. Great little device.

    This is a handy emergency substitute for attaching the Ethernet cable to the computer--no WiFi here--when the Ethernet port is not making contact--frequently--with the cable's clip.

    This device works great, as long as you have the driver, don't expect to PXE boot any devices that don't have the driver built in by default. In Windows itself, it works flawlessly.

    Worthless Product from a Worthless Retailer

    Product does not work unless your computer can read a CD. It's the only way to install drivers. I purchased this device the night before leaving to attend to my brother's recent passing. In order to have internet at his home I knew I would need an ethernet connection and my laptop does not have an ethernet port. When I opened the package I was surprised to see a mini CD. I called the manufacturer and they confirmed that drivers for this particular device are not available for download. And then to top it off, Best Buy won't take back the unit because it is beyond their 2 week return policy. I wasn't even back in town by then. Just another reason never to shop at Best Buy again.

      Hi Max.

      I understand how this situation results frustrating for you. However, the drivers for this device are available for download 100%. The scenario you are describing is unacceptable for us. Please, send us an email on the link below my signature for step-by-step guidance from our team.

    Bought this to connect laptop directly to network to update drivers. This is good to have around as most laptops come with less ports, but should have a USB port.
