    This works exactly as it should! The newer laptops don’t have Ethernet ports and sometimes you just have to plug in! And the price! Best bargain for the money. If you have a newer laptop, trust me, you may need this.

    Have been using this for quite a while and have had no issues. The speed is what is expected and appears durable. Good quality adapter for thin laptops without an ethernet port.

    I bought this Ethernet adapter when the nic card went out on my laptop, and no troubleshooting would fix it. Replacing it would be a pain apparently, so this was my next best option. The first adapter lasted about a year before the wire frayed. It worked so well, that it was worth buying again.

    Works perfectly as secondary network adapters or replacement. I use them on projects to connect devices to a second network, below is a diagram example of a network: USB adapters are the ones with UsbEthX, where X is a number.

    I have to be fair to the Product. I bought it for my WiiU, but THIS WILL NOT WORK ON WIIU, so don't even try. It did work on my Laptop as soon as I plugged it in, so if you're buying it for your PC or Mac, sure go on ahead. WiiU? Not even a chance.

    My wife's newer laptop didn't have a connection to Category cable, only wi-fi capability or usb connection. I purchased this so I could connect laptop directly to router to program new router and be able to use in home category wiring instead of wi-fi.

    With this pandemic that we are currently going through, I needed to find a way to stream from home using my laptop. Only to realize there is no ethernet port and that is where this Insignia USB 2.0 came into play perfect for what I needed.

    I thought my Apple USB to ethernet adapter was shot, as I wasn't connecting to the internet on my MacBook Air. Turns out the problem is with my MacBook, and not the adapter. I will try this adapter when I get my replacement computer, and then can say whether it works. looks good, and price is reasonable.

    There are no more computer supply stores around any more. I couldnt find a internal replacement network card to fix my work computer. Then at the last minute I found this little guy. It's been working great and I don't even know I am going through USB. Very easy to install!

    House took multiple power hits and blew the ethertnet port on desktop. Equipment hooked to power strip but not UPS because in the past, I had more equipment fail with a UPS that just the ethernet port. This was a cheap easy fix. Yes I would recommend if this is what you need.

    My Ethernet adapter got fried by a nearby lightning strike, so I bought this rather than spend money on a new network card. My computer is running Windows 10. I plugged it in and I was right back on the internet. I get my full internet speed using this adapter. Highly Recommended.

    Very surprised at how fast my speeds have been while I’ve had to resort to buying this adapter, I’ve had bad luck with very throttled speeds using adapters in the past, happy to say I haven’t ran into that problem with this one!
