USB C to Ethernet Adapter 1Gbps, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Adapter

I wanted this for my Galaxy S10+ to connect to my router and try a few things. It surpassed my expectations. I have an old D-Link DIR-878 router. It's honestly quite the powerful router for the age. Dual band AC1900 MU-MIMO router that I've been running my home security system on for years. I was running it wirelessly, but switched to full Ethernet and even got an 8-port Gigabit switch to support my cameras, PC, Television and anything else. Okay, on to this product. My point is that I am able to plug an Ethernet cable into this device and straight into my Galaxy S10+ running Android 12 and then plug that into the WAN port and use my hotspot data to power my router. No router flashes required. No USB ports needed on the router. It automatically handled it all using DHCP. My only regret is that I didn't pay a few bucks more for one with a charger because this will drain your battery PRETTY quick. I haven't measured, but I think it drains it as fast as or faster than the Wi-Fi hotspot. But I just found this REALLY COOL that I can plug this into the WAN port and give my router internet in seconds. It's very fast and snappy, too. I typically use PDANet+ w/ Wi-Fi Direct to give my PC internet (I live in a rural area). When I used my phone and my router for internet, pages on the internet loaded VERY fast. The latency improvement was amazing. I'll be buying another one of these but with a charger port on it, too, so I can use it more often. We only recently had broadband run on our road and it's $50/month for 300Mbps up/down. They're taking advantage of us rural folk. I think the Gigabit plan is closer to $100. Meanwhile, 12 miles away there's cable that's $20/month for Gig speeds. Sorry about the rant. This device can not only connect your phone (at least Android 12 and up) to your router and put you on your network via Ethernet if needed, but it can also provide your router with INTERNET via the WAN port if you have hotspot data. As you know, you can use your hotspot in 4 ways: Wirelessly, Bluetooth, USB and Ethernet. It doesn't require a special router, apparently, to do this. Your router should be able to auto-config everything via the DHCP setting. I was amazed. I have one more thing to figure out. If I manually turn my phone screen off, it disconnects the Ethernet connection. But once I noticed when my screen automatically turned off, it continued working. Anyways, the point is, it works and it works great. I've had no issues with it, no disconnects, no hang ups, nothing but a positive experience. If you're using this for a laptop that doesn't have an Ethernet port, it's all you need. However, if you plan on using it for extended periods with a phone, I'd recommend paying a few more bucks and getting one with a charging port on it, too.

I needed a viable Ethernet adaptor for my lap top and this works well. Been in use for about a year and hasn’t failed or become loose with repeated plugging and unplugging.

Works perfectly on my MacBook Pro, my Windows 11 laptop & Ubuntu Linux laptop!

The price is OK. It was delivered on time. This product can become very useful when there is no ethernet port to plug in to but ethernet is needed to operate. This may be a good idea for emergency backup when wi fi stops working, for example. There are plenty of usbc ports so this adapter can come in handy.

After purchasing this to add to my "toolkit", I decided to try it on my two Fire tablets. On my 2020 (10th gen) Fire HD 8 Plus (running Fire OS 7), the results were as I expected. It recognized a USB device was attached, but did not recognize it as an Ethernet adapter. One my 2022 (12 gen) Fire 7 (running Fire OS 8), however, it was both recognized as an Ethernet adapter and WiFi was automatically disabled and the Ethernet adapter used instead. The speed test result (121.62 Mbps) was on a nominally 250 Mbps internet connection, slightly behind the 138.50 Mbps my HD 8 Plus achieved via WiFi, but ahead of the 109.98 Mbps result the Fire 7 obtained via WiFi. Construction of this device seems solid. One possible concern is that I noticed the second Ethernet cable (a Monoprice Flexboot series Cat6) I used it with was difficult to remove, even with the locking tab on the cable fully depressed.

Did not do what I wanted it to do but... it was a long shot any way ! Nice product though..

I run Ubuntu (which often has driver problems) but I plugged this into my usb-c port and it worked, no problem. I paired it with a Cat-6 cable and I get 100mbps down (probably limited by my router). Feels reasonably sturdy, as the cord is not too flimsy. A great, cheap, and effective product. Note: not rating on “Wi-Fi” or “tech support” as this is a product intended to avoid using Wi-Fi, and I haven’t used any tech support related to it. Instructions: Plug a cable from your router into the cat-5 port, plug the usb-c port into your computer

I used a USB-C power tester to compare how much power each of my USB-C to ethernet adapters draw (for this testing I ordered about 4 models from amazon + tested with my old favorite Cable Matters adapter too). All the other adapters drew about 0.9 watts. This Walnew adapter drew 0.4 watts. When using for a laptop (or phone with USB-C), over time, I think this can actually be meaningful to not draining the battery faster. I've been using it a few months and it's been reliable, not dropping connections. The design & materials seem durable but only time will tell. The prices was also very reasonable.

Der Adapter macht genau das, was er soll

A great device it worked well

Exactly what I was looking for. Showed-up quickly. A simple plug and play. Works as described perfectly! Highly recommended!

arrived on time and works as expected

Sometimes wifi just isn't good enough. Bought this to use with a W11 laptop with no lan port. Simple plug and play works perfectly. Then found out it works natively (with a physical C to A adapter) with our new Android TV that only had 10/100 lan - so of course I had to buy another one. :)
