Review on πŸ”Œ Cable Matters Micro USB to Ethernet Adapter - High-Speed 480Mbps - Ideal for Streaming Sticks like Chromecast, Google Home Mini & more! Not Compatible with Roku Device by Patrick Hilzer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It just works! Best in Computers & Accessories

I use a Revain FireTV 4K HDR Stick. I have a Google Wifi puck right next to it, but the FireTV loses connection to the nearest Google Wifi puck and reconnects to the base station halfway across the house. Most microUSB Ethernet adapters are only advertised as having fast 10/100 Ethernet connections. Nice to find one that uses a 1Gb connection for the same price. Although it's limited to 480Mbps over USB 2.0, it's still better than 100Mbps Fast Ethernet. Worked immediately after installation. No more buffering. Hell, most streamers only have 10/100 Ethernet interfaces (Roku Premiere, FireTV 2nd Gen, WDTV Live), so that's better too. Very good product! So far no problems.

Pros
  • Beautiful
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...
