    The Ethernet card in my computer was damaged by lightning. This Ethernet adapter was a. quick and inexpensive fix in that all I had to do was plug the Ethernet cable into one end of the adapter and the other in any USB port.

    Plug into USB on Dell Chromebook, other to Cat5e immediate Ethernet 250 Mbps. We wanted Ethernet over WiFi on VPN. Works Great! However, on other platforms - reports say issues with Mac & Windows 10 So Beware!

    Didn't realize my laptop didn't have an ethernet connection, so off to Best Buy I went. Found this little bad boy and it worked perfectly. Don't need it often, but when I do, I'm glad I have it. Just get it if you need it.

    I had one device with one kind of connection and another device with another connection. Thought I was going to have to put out big bucks for more connectors or more cables or something. Nope, this did the trick!

    I need one for my surface series. it works great. Not always need hard wire for laptops, but some time it needed. I need to download speed faster than Wi-Fi and plug this in surface. I could use full Fios speed with hard wire.

    Last minute, I needed a LAN connector for my MacBook Air. I was pleased to find that Best Buy had one available, for a reasonable price. This is a USB3, so it has faster data reliability than others. I would highly recommend this to other buyers.

    The internet installer- a satellite company - was befuddled as to why the internet wouldn't work after his installation. Your guy hit upon this idea after working thru several other ideas

    I bought this for my son, who gets wired Internet access in his college dorm. WiFi is notoriously slow at university campuses due to the density of students and all the streaming video being sent, so wired is the way to go.

    It works as it should. Also a must have accessory if your laptop does not have an ethernet port. Helpful for when wi-fi isn't available or when wi-fi is down/acting up and you need to access the modem's web user interface.

    This adapter saved me when a lightning bolt struck my residence and fried the ethernet port in my motherboard. It bought me some time until I was ready to build a new PC.

    Adds gigabit ethernet to your Macbook for even more dongle craziness, all because Apple thinks their $3000 laptops don't need a basic port that any $300 Windows laptop has standard.

    This device allowed me to "hardwire" my laptop to my server. Now I don't have to rely on my wi-fi for the connection that was "dirt" slow.. This (only) $ 30. device has made my life better...
