Review on Cable Matters Gigabit Ethernet Adapter by William Groupp

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not a multiport network adapter, but still very useful.

First, this is NOT a multiport NIC. Each port does not appear independently as a device in the system. It's a single NIC connected to a small switch. However, if you know what you are buying, this is perfect. I'm using it for a Raspberry Pi in a portable network setup and it works great. The Pi communicates with all connected devices and behaves like a mini router. I don't have to worry about powering a separate shutdown battery and this unit is very compact and runs cool.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Concise Manual
