UGREEN USB 3.0 Hub Ethernet Adapter 10 100 1000 Gigabit Network Converter with 3 USB 3.0 Ports Hub Compatible with Laptop PC Nintendo Switch MacBook Mac Mini Surface XPS Windows Linux macOS, and More

This is an amazing product. It made my internet connection 10 times faster from 100 Mbps to 1000 Mbps. I do have 1 Gig from my ISP but my laptop's Ethernet card was only 100 Mbps. So it actually takes full advantage of the Gigabyte connection by speeding up the PC. Just plug the cable coming from the router into this Ethernet Adapter and do a speed test. WOW!!! And you have 3 USB connections to boot!

Purchased this item so that I can hardwire my Amazon Firestick and it works flawlessly!! I purchased a different brand item which looked identical but it did not work. So don’t waste your time with other Ethernet adapters and purchase this Ugreen adapter

The hub worked great and all while I was using it without external power. Very convenient for a Surface Pro, allowing me to use wired ethernet and still use some USB 3.0 ports for mice, keyboards, etc.The hub does have a power port for 5V 2A power. Be warned though, DO NOT plug in anything over 5V 2A into that port... My idiot self decided to plug a more powerful one into it and, suddenly the hub ceased to function and had a weird burning plastic smell to it, and no longer functioned. Doh! Well that one was my fault. At least none of the USB devices that were plugged into it at the time suffered any damage.The only reason I'm docking it a star is because for some reason no ethernet cable I used would snap into the port. They would connect and function, but would easily fall out with the slightest bump. It did this for every RJ45-terminated cable I tried, from multiple manufacturers.I'll likely be buying UGREEN's updated version, with USB-C power, to replace it, but this hub did serve me very well before I fried it out of an act of ignorance.

Love the adapter. I had to get a new laptop and didn't realize that it only had wireless connectivity and no ethernet port. Internet speed was slow because that's the nature of wireless. No setup needed. Plug and play. Went from 10 Meg download to 500 Meg. Use SS USB port. Plus has 3 USB ports on this adapter. Did not get hot at all. Highly recommend 👌

Me encanto, debo decir que con esto le voy a poder sacar provecho al maximo a mi fire stick(claro lo complemente con otro dispositivo) ahora estoy usando un control de videojuegos y funciono bien tambien mi mouse inalambrico de mi laptop pero lo voy a probar con un teclado que lleve mouse pad para ahorrar ranuras del usb no creeo que haya algun problema, ademas he visto que tambien se le puede ampliar el espacio para instalar mas aplicaciones, bueno con tanto texto se ve mas que claro que estoy mas que contento con el producto.

This is working great on my Fire TV 4K Max. It seems to be the only one that supports Gigabit on the Fire TV. Speed tests show around 333Mbit down. A bit under the max of 480 I have, but could be hardware limitation. Not too different than on WiFi 5, but more reliable. I also have a USB drive for storage, and IR adapter so I don't have to use the tiny, slippery, Alexa remote.Update May 2024: Bought another one for a Walmart Onn 4K Pro Google TV box. The built in Ethernet is only 100Mbit. Did speed test over 360. And the hub makes it easier to expand in the future.

I purchased this adapter since my new Acer laptop didn't have an Ethernet port. After spending a whopping 10 hours on Wifi doing an initial setup on my laptop, I needed a better option for downloads. Wifi is great for tablets and phones and less intensive surfing, but for downloads a hard wired connection is much better. This adapter just simply worked. Plugged it into my USB port and put my cord into my router and was enjoying super fast download speeds. No setup was required, Windows 10 recognized it and off I went. I highly recommend this adapter. Well made and easy to use. Particularly love the additional 3 ports on the side to plug in additional devices. Great price too!

This device is for advanced users that have knowledge in adding a USB Drive and/or and Ethernet connection to a Fire Stick. Like most other similar products you will need a Micro USB OTG Y Cable to get it to work, sold separately.PROS:IT ADDS 3 USB PORTS AND AN ETHERNET CONNECTION TO A FIRE STICK 4K. I did not test it on the lower end models, I don't have any.USB 3.0 portsAdding USB Flash Drives work (with some little issues)Wireless USB Keyboard Remote Controls with the USB paired adapter work very good.Glossy Black plastic material with blue lights, it looks nice, the plastic does not seem to over heat.CONS:Run on 2 different speed testers Apps, Aniliti Speed Test and Internet Speed Test. Tested DOWNLOAD speeds only.Aniliti showed the WiFi well above at about 40 points higher than the Ethernet connection while Internet Speed Test resulted in the Ethernet at about 10 points higher than WiFi connection.Combined the Ethernet connection speeds averaged about 320 on my 400mbps serviceCombined the WiFi Connection speeds averaged about 340. Not good is it?.Connection speeds are a bit unstable with about a +-20 point different on random runs.There is a opening for a 5v power cable however it is not provided. Not really sure what is for.All 3 USB ports can take 1 to 5 inserts to recognize USB Flash Drives, tested 3. It can get annoying, over time possibly harming the Flash Drives or this Device who knows.CONCLUSION:Not much of a difference in Ethernet speed, in fact maybe worst as explained above.Can be an alternative if you want to avoid putting in WiFi user names and passwords.This one is going back, the fact that adding a USB Flash drive can take multiple inserts on all 3 ports is a deal breaker for me.This device gets 3 starts from me. I can not give this a 1 star because the seller made it clear it is does not work for Fire Sticks but then again it sure did for me with the extra OTG Y Cable I bought separately.I hope this post helps with the debate for all the questions on whether this device works for a Fire Stick or not, FIRE STICK 4K YES.
