Worked great. Used this to add my Google Home Max to my Ethernet (wired) network. Just plug it in and it worked. I'll be able to use this for other devices such as my laptop that does not have an RJ45 Ethernet port. Perfect device for me.One thing that I did not know was that if I could add a Google MAX that is wired to the Ethernet LAN to a speaker group or not. I could do so successfully. Works great, speaker syncs to other wireless Google Home Max speakers. Very happy with this adapter. Recommended.

For several years I had problems with my Google Home Max dropping the wifi signal and freezing up. Out of sheer frustration I looked into bypassing wifi and using an ethernet direct signal into the Home Max. I read about someone with a similar problem who used the Plugable USB-C to Ethernet adapter with good results so I gave it a try. Success!!! The Plugable adapter worked perfectly with no special drivers or configuration. It was plug and play. And now my Google Home Max plays GREAT with NO drop-outs or freezing. I wish I did this years ago. Thank you Plugable for a great product!!!

I have a 12th generation Intel NUC Pro with a built in Intel Nic. It worked great for several months but then the Nic decided it only wanted to work at 100mbps. After messing with it I decided I had better ways to spend my time and purchased this adaptor.This is working great. The lights are very bright so I would not recommend it for a computer in the bedroom unless you can hide it well but the function seems perfect.

First time I ordered this adapter, it had the AX88179 chipset like it says in the description. Ordered 4 more and they all came with a AX88179A chipset (“A” at the end). The difference is that only the first one I ordered is compatible with the Sony camera I’m plugging it into. The additional 4 I ordered are not compatible due to the new chipset. Description needs to be updated to reflect this change in the product.

Excellent speed, 930mbits both waysHigh CPU load in linux; their 2.5gbit USB is easier on the CPU.Linux loads an unexpected driver, ethtool reports half duplex on all connections, refuses to set mode,But connection is full duplex, performance is good.

I have been trying different Ethernet to USB C adapters to be able to run my Moto G7 Power directly from my router. Working to keep WiFi radiated energy low when I sleep. I tried a Belkin adapter but no go, even though it did work on my laptop. However, when I connected the Plugable adapter the phone and my Lenovo TAB10 both connected in a couple of seconds. So far, my research has indicated few adapters that will work properly with older and newer phones and tablets, although this is not to say there are not others. As a bonus, the Ethernet connection is quite a bit faster than the WiFi connection and it automatically shuts off the WiFi connection. I haven't found a selection on either of my devices that let's me monitor the connection, my research indicates that some phones and tablets have that ability. You can tell you are connected on newer phones by looking at the upper right top of the device where you will see an icon that looks like this , to arrow heads with 3 dots (not dashes, couldn't do dots here) between them that indicates you are connected to your router via a direct Ethernet connection. Older/other phones may show different connection icons.

Update: Received another one that plugs into the regular usb port and it is much faster sono techie facts to prove it but this one seems much faster"Anker USB 3.0 to Ethernet Adapter, USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter, Aluminum Portable USB-A Adapter, Compatible with MacBook Pro 2015, MacBook Air 2017,"Just started using it. Super easy. Open package Plug it in and my Windows 10 laptop with the broken ethernet pork now back on ethernet. Not being a techie and having a slow connection anyway...can't be sure if this slowed it down more or not. I am on line and happy. Dreaming some day of getting an apple laptop and escaping all the bloated windows crap and updates that help to slow this thing down.Hope this lasts, worth it to avoid toxic wifi

Funciona para Nintendo Switch en modo portatil, es una pena que no lo ponga en la descripción porque me llevó un buen rato encontrarlo en amazon, en la caja si que lo pone. Si lo quieres para la Dock de la switch entonces este no te sirve, te tienes que pillar otro que tenga el conector USB de toda la vida y que sea compatible, claro.

Nach etwas Suche diesen Ethernetadapter für das Moto Z Play gefunden, funktioniert bestens, nur einstecken.An einem Oneplus 3T auch getestet, da funktioniert es aber erst nach Aktivierung des OTG-Speicher.Hatte es zuerst nicht glauben wollen, da auch der Motorola Support auf Nachfrage keine Adapter nennen konnte.

Not built as robust as Anker's adapters, but since I'm not going to throw it around it's adequate. Uses ASIX AX88179 chipset and, as such, it's compatible with Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL phones (at least at the time this review is written - Google may decide to remove driver as they see fit at any time).Speed wise, gives around 630 Mb/s. Slightly faster than Anker's Realtek RTL8153 at 580 Mb/s, but not as fast as native gigabit Ethernet solution. I guess we pay the price of USB conversion.

Acheter pour ajouter un accès internet filaire à un ASUS hybride PC/tablette T100HA sous Windows 10.Le 1er adaptateur recu ne fonctionnait pas (non détecté). Après contact du support de Pugable (très agréable et réactif), j'ai recu un deuxième adaptateur en quelques jours. Celui-c- est correctement détecté et fonctionne très bien aussi bien en mode tablette que PC.Très satisfait de la prestation Amazon+Plugable.
