ITEM DOA ON ARRIVAL - Revised Review

Review changed in September 2019 to receive a refund from the seller. follow email(s); received an RMA and UPS return a few weeks later = NOTICE that the seller paid for the return shipping and REFUNDED the full purchase price which is all the company can do if a product is faulty. Consequently; Honestly, UGREEN has FOUR stars (4 stars) for responding to customers and at least TRYING to resolve the issue; even if the product is still defective in the end. Would normally give 3 stars if not for…

Works great with Nintendo Switch

Purchased specifically for use with Nintendo Switch although it can be used for many other applications. So my review is mainly about this adapter in connection with switch. I was going to buy another UGREEN USB 3.0 Gigabit model but I saw that this is the latest version so I went with this one. So far, so good. Worked immediately with the Switch docked. It's long enough to plug into the USB 3.0 port on the back of the dock near where you plug in the HDMI cable and power cord, and still close…

Cons
  • Without Auto Mode

Mac support for this product is terrible. I see other reviews that look like some people have been able to get it to work, but it's not plug and play at all. Here's the experience I had before I gave up, came back and just bought another one. I connected it to my Macbook Pro and expected it to work right away, but it doesn't. I've tried multiple cables to see if it's the adapter, but it still didn't work. Then I went to the UGreen website and downloaded the drivers. Drivers are downloaded from…

Pros
  • Compact and Portable: The USB to LAN converter is quite compact, 2.36 x 0.93 x 0.62 smaller than your hand. Save space when using and carry it when traveling.
Cons
  • Legacy model

Very happy with the purchase of the UGREEN USB 3.0 Gigabit Network Adapter. By computer standards, "3" years is a long time. So 3 x 3 meant how old my laptop was. I turned it down because it's a Windows 7 computer and you know the story. I've replaced it with a thin laptop (I'm not sorry. I still give it the ability to work offline to make it feel useful and not too jealous). This is relevant because when I bought it I overlooked the fact that it doesn't have a built-in ethernet port. Oops! In…

Pros
  • Protect, Replace or Add Ethernet Port: The USB 3.0 Gigabit Network Adapter is a good accessory to protect or replace your expensive computer's RJ45 network port. Easily add a standard RJ45 port to your Ultrabook, laptop or Macbook Air for file transfer, video conferencing, gaming and HD video streaming.
