    My MacBook does not have an Ethernet cable and I needed to program a new modem therefore I needed this piece. It does the job very well and picks up great speed directly from the modem. The price is too high IMO. This would be great at around $10.

    Did not work with Nintendo switch (was supposed to be plug and play). Returned and purchased a different brand. Worked with a computer though.

    The Insignia Ethernet adapter was very easy to install and use. Bought it to use on a computer that lost its Ethernet card. Worked like a charm!

    It works. Is necessary in places where the wifi is not available or too risky to use, or when someone does not know how to configure the wifi.

    I originally bought this as an adapter for my Nintendo Switch. While it doesn't work for that, it does work wonderfully for my macbook pro. The driver can be installed online, so the disk isn't a MUST-HAVE.

    Works great for when my Ethernet port on my mobo went out on me. Slight issue with cycling disconnects, but it was only a stopgap. Eventually got around to flushing my bios and now mobo is fully operational again.

    I bought this for my laptop that doesn't have a network port and it has issues connecting to some wi-fi. It works well enough as I used it for a VPN connection to work and had it connected for 8 hours at a time. Most of my work is done with an RDP to a remote system, but I also run some local apps that references data on network drives. Really no issue there. Although the network cable was still a little loose even though it "clicked" into the jack, the overall quality is good enough and it does the job. I did get some brief disconnects but nothing out of the ordinary compared to my regular wi-fi connection when that works.
