Works with MacBook!

It wasn't easy to download the software and get it working on the MacBook. A problem with iOS blocked it and stopped the installation. It had nothing to do with the Lention software. Once I unlocked my MacBook, everything went smoothly. This adapter works great and no problems so far! I recommend it!

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Looks

"If it works " depends on the device

I bought this specifically to turn on the Mi Box S Android TV Streamer and/or my LG 65OLEDB7. It could not provide speeds over 100Mbps. Apparently these devices use two different chipsets and you can't easily tell which chipset is being used and if it's compatible before you buy. Different models of LG TVs have different USB ports, so different adapters will/will not work with them. It just so happens that the LG B7 *has* a USB 3.0 port (later models only have USB 2.0). So in theory, you should

Pros
  • even old people can understand
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Cable not working, BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! (Please Read!)

"I bought this cable to connect a LAN cable to my Mac to work with a Raspberry Pi, which I couldn't connect to wirelessly until I used the LAN cable for a tutorial . I got this plug and it didn't work at all when I got it. I would check for signal and for signal from anything plugged into the USB-C ports. I ended up buying a USB-C to LAN connector that Apple offers on their website and it worked right away. This might have been an issue for me as I had to plug this connector into a USB USB-C…

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • No color required

A Must Have❣️❣️

LENTION USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. Bought recently and used yesterday. It ABSOLUTELY worked with a Chromebook. VERY easy to use. Simply plug the cable into an Ethernet port and the other end into an adapter. Then connect the USB connection to your computer. I'm not sure how it works with other devices, but it should definitely work. It is very stable and has an excellent price-performance ratio. If WiFi goes down, have a wired connection to troubleshoot. I highly recommend this adapter.

Pros
  • LED Indicator - Green LED for correct connection and yellow LED for network connection. Low power consumption, no external power required
Cons
  • Available in white only
