great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a flash drive (128-G), and an adapter (USB to Ethernet). Both were for USB-3.0 which I wanted to test on my computer on the USB-2.0 port. The Geek Squad person (CHRIS) was EXTREMELY helpful by going to get units of both devices in both USB-3.0 and USB-2.0 form. We tried the USB-3.0 devices and both worked. We were able to pay for both devices at the Geek Squad counter (no need to go through regular check-out). Chris returned the unopened devices to their display places in the store. I had to admit that Chris did all the things I would have done myself. It couldn’t have been any easier. By the way, I am currently using both devices regularly and have not had any problems. Chris is at the Columbia, MD store.

Saved my computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a reliable product that says USB 3.0 but I used it for several months on a 2.0 USB slot, and it worked great there too. I have it in a 3.0 connection now, but I don't notice the difference. Perhaps my network traffic is just not the heavy. The motherboard on a [brand name I like, so I won't mention the brand] included the ethernet connection. When that broke, I thought I was going to have to replace the whole computer, but the Geek squad guys pointed me to this product. It was inexpensive and worked great from the moment I plugged it in.

Slightly finicky but works.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to attach to an Acer Chromebook 14. It does the job. At first I thought something was wrong with it, since it has super aggressive power saving. That is, when it can’t get a PHY layer connection, the whole thing shuts off and de-registers from USB. I found out the issue was actually my switch which had a bad port, not the adaptor - but other adaptors will stay on with an intermittent connection. This won’t. So, keep in mind that this probably isn’t appropriate for something like a wake-on-lan remote application (although it may be smart enough to turn on in such a situation.) But if you have a standard solid Ethernet connection, it’s just fine.

Perfect Fix
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I never noticed with my laptop being slim that I didn't have an ethernet port. I needed the port because I was in a spot where WiFi was not available intermittently. This was such a lifesaver. I'm definitely hanging on to this just in case.

Windows already had the necessary driver for it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this while on vacation. My wife's Surface II Pro needed to download an update, but the update was for the wireless adapter! Since we were in an Hotel, we needed to get a wired connection to the Hotel Internet service. The Best Buy suggested an Ethernet to USB Adapter might work, if we had a way to install the software driver for the USB to Ethernet dongle. I took a chance and bought this. Surprise! My wife's Surface Pro II already had the driver for this device. It worked perfect right out of the box. No downloads, no nothing, and we had a connection. My wife updated her Surface and was back in action within minutes. This device saved us a bunch of trouble!
