## Description

desertcart.com: WisdPi USB 3.2 to 5GbE Adapter (WP-UT5) Realtek RTL8157 Wired LAN Network Connection 5G, 2.5G, 1G, 100Mbps : Electronics

Review: Great functionality with MacOS and IpadOS - Nicely made product based on fit and finish of the metal case. Plugged it in with my M4 iPad and it hooked up to my UniFi 10G switch (FlexXG) quickly at 5Gb. No issues, no drivers to load, utterly seamless. Same with my M2 Mac minis. Great product and it doesn’t seem to get too warm regardless what i throw at it.,
Review: Performance is definitely dependent on hardware and operating system - The previous review that stated it might work or it might not depending on hardware is spot on. Go read it if you haven't already. I am primarily using a M3 MacBook Pro 14 and this adapter consistently gives the max speed/throughput my ISP says I should be getting (2Gbps up and down). This is the fourth USB-C to Ethernet adapter I've tried but the first with the more advanced Realtek chipset, and that seems to make the difference. I have tested this out on a 2019 16 inch MBP with an Intel CPU and that doesn't hit anywhere near the advertised speed ... HOWEVER it's a work computer using Zscaler and very well might be bandwidth capped. All of the other adapters I tried had me around the same speed as this adapter, about 6-700 Mbps up and down. I'm also on macOS 14.7 which may also contribute to the problem. I have an 13 inch MBP with Intel chipset from 2020 running macOS 15.5 and that gets the same speed as the M3 MBP. So, almost certainly an issue with Zscaler and/or the older OS. Haven't even talked about my network infrastructure. Using Ubiquiti router, switches, and access points and a Comcast XB10 in bridge mode. I have yet to test this on different network infrastructure, so that may impact things too. I know I often have trouble with multi-gig hardware on my Verizon FIOS 1Gbps network (which I keep to 10/100/1000 equipment, so I haven't even plugged this in on that Verizon network). Giving this five stars because it's the only one giving me consistent speeds I expect on the 2.5Gbps network. Your mileage will almost certainly vary, so be careful blaming the adapter if you have problems.

### ⭐ Not a recommended purchase
*by J***H on March 17, 2025*

This adapter gets hot and drops packets on a regular basis. Difficult to get file transfers done when you can't rely on the ethernet connection. My built-in 1G ethernet port on my laptop performed 100% better than this one. Shameful, to say the least. Not often I don't recommend a purchase but this is the exception.
