uni USB Ethernet Adapter Driver Free 1Gbps, Aluminum, USB 3.0 to RJ45 Gigabit Lan Wire Adapter, USB Network Adapter Compatible with MacBook Pro 2022 2020, Surface Pro, Windows 11, XP, Vista, Mac/Linux

Seems a quality item and worked straight out the box on my Raspberry Pi Zero with OS Lite using a micro-USB adapter I already had. Speeds seem good enough and no issues to report.

I am starting to buy a lot more products from the UNI brand - they are good value for money, generally a lot cheaper than the major brands and they tend to have good quality chips / controllers built in. The customer service people are friendly plus all the products I've bought from them come with lifetime warranty like the major brands so why pay more? Saying that it is always wise to check out the quality of electronic products, but UNI seem to be doing the right things with quality control as far as I can see. I ran the device on Windows 10 on two different ASUS computers and works straight out of the box / plug and play... (It's always a good idea to check for driver updates for the device using Windows Update or Device Manager.).. I made a point to do that and Windows provided an updated driver so it was worth doing. It runs on Realtek USB GbE Family Controller - I have always found Realtek to be very reliable and good quality. The device definitely works at 1Gbps speed allowance (as expected for a Realtek controller). Weighs appx 29g so it is very light. The USB cable is relatively thick, stiff, and nicely braided, and the connector is well made / anodised-aluminium layered and fits securely into USB ports. The device itself is layered in dark grey anodised-aluminium which protects it well and also helps heat to dissipate. Its definitely a perfect size for travel - small and light enough to carry but just big enough that you wont misplace it easily. And the UNI emblem is cute and simple as well - doesn't take away from the overall look of things. The power and data lights are of decent brightness as well. I like the fact that the packaging is very simple - no plastic / no unnecessary packaging to go in the bin - just a simple little box that provides enough protection for transport. Definitely worth buying and trying it out.

As per other reviews, it’s fast and easy to plug use and works well! I use it in the USB3 of my external monitor so that I can just plug the monitor into my laptops thunderbolt slot and it connects to the wired network through this too! Only complaint and I’m surprised no one has mentioned it….it get pretty hot, all the time, even when not in use (even when there’s not Ethernet wire plugged into it!) and so if I leave my monitor powered on (the USB hub stays powered up), it will stay hot even though there’s definitely nothing running through it…it means I’m not happy to leave it plugged in all the time and really defeats the purpose for me, sadly, as I have to plug it in each time to use it!

a really neat product which acts as an interface between my internet hub and the USB of my laptop. Or, in Welsh, "tidy".

Work laptop only has 2 USB-A slots do this is perfect to make it more versatile. Does the job perfectly. And good value

Perfect for my needs a great little ethernet / USB connector

Works well - both w11 and router recognise it - no need for drivers and speed is perfectly good

Device is well made and compact. Laptop reported a hardware fault after failing to connect using this. Laptop now repaired and I have not tried the device again, but I intend to.
