The? You must install the DRIVER from the CD to use this thing.

If you're nostalgic for the old days, buy this one. You must install the driver from the included mini-disk before the adapter will even work. Without them, the device will not work. If you're lucky enough to have a CD drive, you're fine, but if, like me, you don't have a CD drive on your computer anymore (like most people do), or if you lose your CD, bad luck . You can't download and install the driver from the website - it doesn't exist. There's no joy in this blast from the past. And so much work for just one stupid Ethernet adapter. Save money and buy another adapter that actually connects and works - they EXIST. (ps. I bought this to use on a MacBook and a PC; it doesn't work on either without installing a driver.)

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
