Worked great. 4 times faster than using wifi
By Nan on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021
I did a speed test on my Apple Air Macbook 13" with wi-fi connection at my house. Download and upload of only around 22 mps. Just tested out this USB to Ethernet connector with my router and it is almost FIVE TIMES FASTER. I am getting around 95mps. I did not have to download any drivers or doing anything at all. I just turned off my wi-fi on my computer and then plugged the Ethernet cable into the Apple adaptor and then plugged that into the USB port on my laptop. I was immediately able to surf the internet. Very pleased with this item. Works flawlessly. (For reference, my laptop was made in 2014 and has macOS Mojave Version 10.14.6 ). There are less expensive non-Apple ethernet connectors out there but in reading comments and reviews, it seems that you may not be able to get them to work with your Apple computer without having to load drivers, etc. And some are not compatible with some of the MAC operating systems. So that is why I decided to stick with Apple Ethernet connector and am very pleased.

Good, for most people. Only goes up to 100 MBPS

If you have SUPER high-speed be aware: this only supports 100 MBPS. Only 100, you say? What's the big deal? If you're someone that has fiber at 1,000 MBPS, you're only getting 10% of what is possible. I was able to get around 300 MBPS using Wifi. This will be more consistent speed, but not as fast a wifi in many applications. Want real speed? Get the Thunderbolt to Ethernet adaptor here: Apple Thunderbolt Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (MD463LL/A)
