    Needed this to transfer files between two computers since the new laptop didn't have an ethernet hookup. Worked perfectly.

    Due to the situation of COVID-19, I started working remotely at home. My work laptop did not have an Ethernet port and it became an issue because my WIfi didn't work well. I tried to find a USB-Ethernet adapter but only this product was available at my local Best Buy store. Ever since I started using it, my internet connection is always consistent and works very well with my laptop USB 3.0 port. I am very satisfied with it. I loved that it also included a CD installation (old school here) and it is compatible with my family Switch console!

    I was ready to throw out my Gateway Netbook I got from Verizon when the ethernet port stopped working, and Verizon's tech support was useless addressing the problem. Then I saw this item and decided to try it. Great device that performs flawlessly. I have used it on my my Apple MacBook Air loaded with Mac OS X, my Compaq and Gateway netbooks loaded with linux and my Dell notebook loaded with Windows 10, and have not had any problems. It says it's USB 3.0, but it is backward compatible with USB 2.0 standard. My notebooks and netbook PCs are both over 5 years old, but it still performed well with them. I noticed no difference in performance between this device and the Compaq's built in ethernet port. Good device, and to me it is well worth the cost.

      Ethernet ports going bad is something we can fix and we're excited to know the JUE130 has done just that for your Mac.

    Works as expected, especially in Linux. Not much you have to do with this, it's very straight forward and you don't need to download drivers for either Windows or LInux. Just as good as onboard lan or intel lan pcie card.

    I had to wait for J5Create to make a driver for Sonoma, but once they did that, I was able to download the driver and install it. Once installed, I am getting the full speed of my IGB FiOS connection. I was hoping that no installation was required, but if you follow the instructions on their website, you'll get the adapter to work.

    I bought this to replace a bad Ethernet port on my desktop. The PC does have usb 3.0 ports so this was the easiest fix. (prefer a wired connection on this desktop for frequent data transfers from a NAS). Pros - I can not provide raw data at the moment, but the connection is faster than the original Ethernet. Easy to install, no opening case to replace a NiC. Best Buy in store online order pickup was quick and efficient and I did not have to wait for UPS. Cons - Once in a while I turn on PC and the drivers for this device fail to load. Rebooting has always solved the problem. (Going to run HDD diag to ensure failing drive is not the issue here)

    Adapter is a convenient tool to have

    Works great. Handy - very small to keep in my laptop bag without taking up a lot of space and without being heavy. Although I don't usually need to use it all of the time, it's great to have for when I do need it. In fact, just a few minutes before seeing the request from Best Buy to do a review of this, I was in a situation where I was downloading something from the Internet onto my laptop using the home's Wi-Fi, and I was in a corner of my home where the Wi-Fi signal is very weak and the large download was taking a much longer time to complete. There was a network cable outlet in the wall next to the laptop, and I had a network cable, but my laptop doesn't have a built-in network cable input. So, I went looking for my j5create Ethernet adapter to hook up everything, and downloaded the file much faster now that it was being downloaded through a hard-wired connection. So, it was actually a life-saver for me right before I started to write this review.

    My older desktop PC ethernet and Wi-Fi speeds were limited to 10/100 Mbps. I purchased the USB 3.0 to Ethernet adapter hoping it was backwards compatible with my older USB 2.0 port. Glad I did. Even with the limitations on my 2.0 port the adapter provided an increase to my internet speed 5 times greater than my original equipment. Easy to install, just plug and play with Windows 10. No drivers to install separately.

    This is a super easy to use USB to Ethernet adapter. It is pretty much driverless since it will work with multiple types of devices without needing any software to be downloaded. We used it to replace a bad adapter on an Accuson Bonsai echo machine and it was picked up and worked right away even though the OS on echo machines is heavily locked down. Its easy. It works. Get it!

    I bought an 8th Intel i5 generation HP Envy laptop and the laptop is very slim so we can't connect the Ethernet cable for internet at the office. this little device is the perfect adapter for that purpose: just plug-and-play and you're all set to connect with the Ethernet cable. and also small enough to carry around in the laptop slim case.

      Hello,
      I hear from many people that miss having an Ethernet port on their newer laptops. Many manufacturers are going with the slim form factor over ports in their laptop design. The JUE130 is a great option in that case. We appreciate you taking the time to post a review.
      Cheers,

    This product is good for anyone who uses a laptop for their main point of operation, from working to streaming games this product actually does exactly what you need it to do. Of course, there are different options out there such as getting one like this with 3 extra usb ports on it. I love this product, and it is very convenient for any laptop user who needs a way to hard wire & connect to their router via Ethernet cable.
