      - Test the adapter on a different USB port on your computer.
      - If possible, try connecting it to another computer to see if the issue persists.
      - Ensure the Ethernet cable connected to the adapter is working correctly by testing it with another device.
      - Visit the j5create Support Page for the JUE130 and download the latest driver for your operating system.
      Uninstall the current driver:
      - On Windows: Open Device Manager, locate the adapter under Network Adapters, right-click, and select Uninstall. Then reboot your computer and reinstall the driver.
      - On macOS: Remove the adapter from Network Preferences, reinstall the driver, and add the adapter back.
      Power Cycle the Adapter
      - Disconnect the adapter from your computer and unplug the Ethernet cable.
      - Wait for a minute, then reconnect both.
      Reset Network Settings
      - On Windows: Run the following commands in Command Prompt (as Administrator):
      ipconfig /release
      ipconfig /renew
      ipconfig /flushdns
      - On macOS: Reset the network configuration through System Preferences > Network > Advanced > TCP/IP, and click Renew DHCP Lease.

      The USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is intended to connect to a computer with an available USB Type-A port and connect an Ethernet cable to the adapter and the other end to a modem or router. The Ethernet Adapter will also require an installation of a driver for proper functionality. Will not work if the adapter is connected to a TV and Ethernet cable to a modem or router. j5create

    Purchased this because it was the only usb to ethernet adapter the store stocked that wasn't usb-c. Yes, it "works" but not well and not for the purpose I had intended: adding GB wired ethernet to a new TV purchase (TV ethernet ports are 10/100 MB not GB). Uses an obscure/uncommon chipset not recognize by android/android TV (intel, realtek, broadcom , etc chip-based adapters do work). Also shipped with no drives, so many users needing it for network access wouldn't be able to get driver if it is not recognized. Would not buy again, would instead wait a couple days for online delivery of a better product for the same price.

      The USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter is intended to connect to a computer with an available USB Type-A port (USB 3.0 is recommended) and an Ethernet cable to a modem or router. This Adapter requires an installation of a driver for Windows or Mac platform. Will not work if wanting to connect directly to a TV via Ethernet port. j5create
