    I bought this USB to Gigabit Ethernet because Surface Book 2 does not have an Ethernet port. The setup is pretty simple, just plug the adapter to a USB port and it automatically detected and I did not have to install any drivers at all. I checked the Device Manager and the USB-to-Gigabit Ethernet adapter is recognized as a Realtek USB GbE Network Family Controller. So far, this adapter has been working great.

    My wifi died on my laptop and I didn't have the cash to fix it so... for a few bucks I popped this into my USB3 port and I was back in business! No drivers needed, worked with both my Ubuntu partition and Windows one.

    With the laptops getting thinner, the standard RJ-45 ports are a thing of the past. Got this for a client and it immediately solved the issue. Just plugged in and Windows 10 installed it without the need for a direct driver download. Speed tests went from 25Mbps wireless to 642Mbps wired to his Comcast 600Mbps plan. They couldn’t be happier.

    This is a good unit so far with a good build quality to it. Tried it on a computer with an ethernet port and it worked great. Also tried it on newer PC using a USB-C adapter and it worked great with no noticeable latency. I'd recommend it, if it is still available.

    Purchased this to use for a more reliable connection to the internet for my laptop and it works great. I stream ppv events on my laptop and I use hdmi to my big tv and Using wifi alone would always drop every now and then. After buying this, that’s no longer a problem

    With the newer computers, they do not seem to be installing ethernet ports, and I need ethernet ports every once in a while; well good old Best Buy had a solution: this ethernet adapter - it works - I am happy - and when I need to connect with ehternet, I am able to do so - thanks Best Buy!

    My son's laptop did not have an Ethernet port and Zoom meetings were stalling on our Wi-Fi. This solved the problem and he connects through an ethernet cable to our extender. It works great for us. Deal of the Day made it half price and especially worthwhile.

    I restored my Lenovo 110S-11IBR to operation and needed to have access to the ethernet server connection because the wireless was not fast enough to prevent upgrades from timing out. This does the job as expected.
