Superior Connectivity with Ethernet

My analysis of this adapter showed that it greatly improved the speed of my smart TV's internet connectivity, enabling faster streaming and clear images. The Ethernet adapter was easy to set up, and the compact design allowed it to be easily concealed. The only con I found was the initial cost, but the long-term benefits outweighed the expense. Overall, I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to enhance their TV viewing experience.

Pros
  • Fast data transfer speed thanks to Gigabit Ethernet support
Cons
  • Requires a separate adapter, which may add an extra expense

Cons
  • Slightly torn

Works well so far

I bought this one with the vented adapter because reviews of other 2.5GBE adapters often mentioned that the adapter gets very hot. This one definitely feels a bit cooler than my other 2.5Gbe adapter, so I'd say the ventilation is effective. The adapter worked out of the box on my 10.13.6 MacBook Pro, but the speeds were slower than expected. After installing the latest Realtek driver from Realtek Taiwan website, the speed is much faster. In speed tests between my RAID10 NAS and this computer…

Pros
  • 4 speeds: Connection speeds 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps.
Cons
  • It's ok
