Compact and works great

Once again I am impressed with the Syntech packaging and how the product looks and feels in my hands. Since I don't have an Ethernet port on my Macbook Pro, this device saves me from Wi-Fi dead zones. It feels solid and drastically increases my internet speed on any Wi-Fi connection. The only thing I don't like is that I have to download a driver to make it work on my Mac.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • ---

Gets the job done at an affordable price!

Wi-Fi is too weak for my Nintendo Switch so I had to go with a wired configuration. I have no idea why Nintendo didn't build an ethernet port into the console, but this little product solves that problem! It's a lot cheaper than the official Nintendo-licensed Ethernet port and works without any issues or lags. I now have a consistently stable internet connection on my switch.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Issues

Great peripheral if you experience dead zones/latencies over Wi-Fi!

ft. There are a few vulnerabilities and we need a fix to improve internet connection on our laptops. Plug this device into our MacBook, connect it to our router via Ethernet, and voila, we hit top speed for our ISP compared to the meager 30% we got over Mesh Wi-Fi. Highly recommended! Easy to use and works great.

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Nothing

Works on Nintendo Switch as advertised!

I doubted this product would work on the Nintendo Switch as most USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet adapters don't seem to work on the Switch, usually only USB 2.0 100Mpbs adapters. To my surprise, this adapter works great with it! I can load games quickly and as far as I can tell online games have low latency. The build design seems great as it's aluminum and smaller than I thought it would be. 5/5

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Difficult to say

It does the job - networking products

This is an Ethernet to USB adapter, not much to explain but here's something to know: DO NOT buy if you're buying it for Nintendo Switch and have internet speed over 50Mbps, in my tests with a router in the same room, 5Gh/z Wi-Fi performs equal or no better (Ethernet 47Mbps, 5Gh/z 50-70Mbps) . Also, the adapter is not suitable for a 3.0 USB port, you need to bend the connector 5 degrees for it to work. While I like the metal body and lack of a cable, it comes in handy in other circumstances.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Only available in white

Works perfectly! Feels well done.

This item fits my desktop PC perfectly. After my ethernet port died, I was only able to use Wi-Fi, but the speed was a bit slow at times. Since I bought the Syntech network adapter, the speed is as good or even better than before. I've also used this with my Nintendo Switch and it works great too. I like that this item doesn't have a built-in USB cable, since such devices often fail. You can always get a USB2 extension cable if you don't need to plug it in directly, but it plugs straight into…

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • So-so

Works great so far

I plugged the adapter into my computer and it was immediately recognized by my computer and connected to the internet with no problems. So far it's doing what it's supposed to do and I hope it will continue to do so for a long time. I bought a USB to Ethernet adapter that connected to a USB port with a cable (cord) at one of the nationwide electronics stores. almost triple the price and after a few months the cable broke and I had to throw the product away. After that I searched for a cordless…

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Vulgarity
