      Hmayorga, I'm sorry to hear about having to push hard to get the JCA374 working. If it seems that the JCA374's USB-C male connector is loose/wiggly at all, please reach out to support mentioned on the packaging and seek an exchange as it is deemed to be defective. The hub is covered under a manufacturer's two year warranty and an agent will quickly assist you.

    Ethernet connection would drop when joining zoom calls. Only supports up to 60w power. Needed more power support and downloading drivers didn’t fix zoom drops. Tried to return but Best Buy has a 15 day return policy… was provided with store credit.

      The USB-C Multi-Adapter requires DisplayPort Alt Mode and USB Power Delivery 2.0 or 3.0. The USB-C power-in port will only support up to 60W pass-through charge. Please contact our Technical Support Team, so that they can get more information from you.

    mostly unnecessary gadget for 2018 MacBook Pro

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Quality is not stellar. USB C connector stiff and hard to connect. Also the Expensive for the quality of build. Another issue I had was that with a wireless USB mouse/keyboard the mouse and keyboard were not responsive and worked only in close range. For MacBook Pro users it is best to get a few $8 USB 3-USB C adapters for your cables, it will also result in better performance from those USB devices.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      If you are experiencing unresponsive mice, keyboards and they are wireless, we recommend using wired. When a wireless dongle is connected to a USB 3.0 port, radio waves are produced and when this occurs, the waves collide causing the poor performance. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused and if you would like more information on this, please reach out to support and an agent will gladly assist.

      Obtaining the right adapter for your needs can be difficult; thanks to hubs like the JCA374, you now have HDMI, Ethernet connectivity supporting up to 1 gigabyte speeds, 3.0 ports for peripherals all in one making this next to none on the market.

    I returned this product. I purchased it to be able to back up one external hard drive to another external hard drive. The product recommended being plugged into an outlet but did not contain the plug-in part of the equipment which would have had to be a separate purchase. I purchased a different product to meet my needs.

      Hello,
      I regret to hear that the JCA374 did not meet your needs. The power supply is intended power pass through power to your laptop. The adapter itself is primarily designed for connecting peripherals and not mass data transfer. We appreciate your feedback.

    Just buy Apple stuff. I installed the apple drivers as instructed first, then installed and updated the firmware. The power pass through worked a couple times then stopped. The USB worked - sort of - for a day - then stopped. Day 2 - all dead. Returned and bought Apple dongle (which was perfect out of the box).
