Review on 🔌 AuviPal Ethernet Adapter with 3 USB Hub Ports and Power OTG Adapter for FireStick, Chromecast Ultra /2/1 /Audio, Google Home Mini, Micro USB to RJ45 LAN Converter - Aluminum Shell by Christopher Isaac

In the preface: I used to repair and resell computers, I owned and ran a local tech/computer repair shop, and I started out buying, repairing, and selling video games and consoles, so that's me not *absolutely* a jerk when it comes to wired networks, although I may have gotten a little carried away as the technology moves so quickly. Before becoming a junior partner, office manager and administrative assistant at the law firm I currently work for, I was just a tech support person who also bought and repaired/maintained computers and network infrastructure and monitored to make sure everything was working order. Anyway, I have an old (2011) PC that has been in storage for a while because its HDMI and Ethernet ports eventually stopped working properly. The PC is a small form factor, so everything was powered by the MOBO machine, and it was cheaper and more convenient to transfer files to a new machine with better specs than to fix a broken system. It was stored because it contained legal documents, so simply reformatting the hard drive and selling it could jeopardize the firm's or client's files. So this one was decommissioned and given to me for remote use during this pandemic and it was fine for my use as the VGA port still worked fine. I was using a Rosewill Wireless-N dongle for internet and found that a wired connection would prove faster and more stable when uploading and downloading files, so I bought it to replace a dead ethernet port, so I can connect to my home network. The results were stunning. While this product offers reliable plug-and-play installation of the built-in drivers, my house's basic 100 Mbps connection (sometimes 125 or 130, but NEVER less than 70) ran along through this ethernet adapter less than 25 Mbit/s / With. To make things even more unusual, when I unplugged the USB-to-Ethernet adapter (which I didn't plug into one of the device's USB ports, lest it turn off), I plugged in my N-Wireless . Key back, and suddenly it was pulling 42 Mbps instead of 38, which was the highest it had been up to that point. Cat6 or higher at home and all my devices are gigabit certified. Very confusing. I want to know where this extra data is going, or maybe I'm losing speed because they are converting network data packets to USB? My download speeds are the same whether I'm using an ethernet adapter OR a wireless dongle, so I didn't understand how this is possible.
