      Proper functionality entails downloading and installing a driver on a Windows or Mac platform. Depending on the OS you have, different instructions apply. Make sure computer is up to date such as software, drivers, BIOS, etc by visit your manufactures website in their Support section. Being behind on updates could cause the j5 device to not function as intended. j5create

    I had trouble installing this on my computer so I ended up returning it to the store. Maybe a good product for someone else. Because of the covid 19 I couldn't get through to their customer service.

      Obtaining both a more secure, reliable internet connection is part of the deal when using the JUE130 - supporting up to 1 gigabyte speeds make this a top seller.

    Worked well for about 2 weeks then gave out. Not sure what happened but it won’t work at all unless I give it a couple taps , but then it stops shortly after. I’ve tried new cables and it seems the cables are all fine.

    It did it's job for a while honestly about 4 weeks and then it gave out I'm not happy it slowed my entire work down and I feel as if I'm going to be forced to get a new type of connection that can finally maintain the "big strenuous load" of a 2015 Macbook air running on a entire wifi network ALONE mind you .I have had 3 of them and it will even fail on a 2021Apple products not to mention the exceptionally faster failures on PC respectfully.yeah not cool but get a new one and it works fine smh all cool until boom

    Stick with USB 2.0 gigabit ethernet adapters. You need to download drivers for all the USB 3.0 dongles. There's no speed boost for using USB 3.0. Comes with CD to install drivers, but optical drives are obsolete nowadays.

    It worked great I used a few times and it died. Do what foes that say. Buy a different brand I guess. I use my tower only 5 times in last 5 months. And I went to use it and no internet.

      I regret to hear the JUE130 stopped functioning correctly after only a few times, if you are still within the manufacturer's 2 year warranty period, we will gladly exchange it for you. Our contact information can be located on the packaging and an agent will be glad to take you through that process.
      Respectfully,
