    Perfect little gadget and does exactly what it is intended to do. You will not give up any speed whatsoever by using this. Allows for a solid Ethernet wired connection for those who have limited ports with their router. I would highly recommend this product.

    Had this setup and running in 2 minutes. I was just relying on my WiFi for my PS4 & TCL 55” and wasn’t fast enough. I found this online and got 50’ Cat 6 cables from Best Buy deal for the day and installed and got extremely faster speeds. Worth the buy
