Review: Simply Awesome!!! - I have had an ongoing issue with my inbuilt Network Adaptor and had previously purchased another product via desertcart which was similar to this one (all I can tell you is the other pluggable adaptor was blue 2.0 usb 10/100) . I probably shouldn't say it was similar as it ended up being slow as a dead snail even though the various sellers of the blue adaptor gave the impression it would handle anything up to 100mb when in reality its max was 12mb if you were really really lucky but usually maxed out at around 8mb. My max connection speed at the moment is around 38mb which is pretty good for the UK so I started searching for a better pluggable adaptor and was lucky enough to find this little beauty. I only have 2.0 USB ports but that wasn't a prob as all the 3.0 USB devices will still work in 2.0 ports (of course their capabilities are limited to 2.0 speeds) so getting a 3.0 devise would mean I was able to push the 2.0 port to it's max. Shortly after purchasing this Adaptor I received an email from the seller with the direct link to the drivers which I thought was really cool and ensured that when it arrived (which was in a matter of days), all I had to do was plug it in and I was set...no fuss whatsoever. The Adaptor worked the second it was plugged in and has done since the day it was installed. Zero drop-outs and consistently maintains an average speed of 34mb and at times even exceeds my expected max of 38mb. I noticed some people saying this adaptor was "quite big" or something like that It isn't!!..Its 6.5cm x 2cm which is a lot less chunky than the rubbish Blue one I unfortunately purchased. The USB connection is on a flexible wire which is a dang site better than the ones that rigidly plug straight into the USB port..which was a nightmare on my laptop. I don't make a habit of rambling on about things I buy off desertcart..but I can tell you straight, if you are looking for a Pluggable Network Adaptor which is reliable, consistent and no fuss..I would highly recommend this one with no hesitation at all. I don't know what it's max speed actually is, but it certainly works to my max...Awesome !!!!!
Review: The best way to achieve hassle free gigabit speeds! - I recently upgraded to the Virginmedia 152mb internet package, but alas, my network card was not gigabit and I could only get D/L speeds of 100mb tops. So, after opting for the slightly more popular TeckNet® USB 3.0 to 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN Wired Network Adapter - and having to send it back after it packed up on day one - I decided to purchase this Plugable unit. Cracking piece of kit: Well made, proper clear English instruction (not that you need them). The company also sent me a web link to download the most recent drivers, which allowed me to plug and play as soon as the adapter arrived. I've been using this for a couple of days now and happily achieve D/L speeds in excess of 152mb. And it works fine after waking the unit from sleep / hibernation, etc. I would recommend purchasing one if you are looking for an easier way of attaining gigabit speeds without having to swap network cards.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adapter good, USB 3 on some chipsets bad...
*by M***O on 13 February 2015*

I feel like I have left a review for this already, anyway I've had it nearly a year now so... I have a Windows 2012R2 Hyper-V server based on a desktop board which only had one built in gigabit port. At the time it was in a MiniITX case and I didn't have space for a PCI card so I went for this. It seemed a bit better than the other Chinese no-name ones I looked at. It arrived on time in proper packaging and seemed reasonable quality for the price, no problems connecting it. Clearly this is a bit bulky (they all are) and will dangle out the back of a higher USB port on a tower case. I recommend using a lower port on a PC but this would work well on a laptop. Since I bought this I have upgraded my server to a MicroATX case and different board and this affects my opinion of the product. When I first used this with my ASROCK Z77 ITX (Ivy Bridge) board it was unreliable needed to be unplugged and re-plugged in, one or twice a week (24/7 system). That said, ALL the USB 3.0 connections on this board we're unreliable, my USB3 external drive also used to just disappear when it felt like it too. I tried different drivers with varying results. SO, with my new Gigabyte H97 (Haswell) board its been MUCH more reliable and given me no problems lately. So I guess certain combinations of boards and driver affect he performance of this, something to bear in mind. I use this in the Hyper-V switch manager to share with all the guests vms. On one 2012 guest vm I use NIC Teaming between this and the Realtek onboard port, it works great and the throughput it good. When I first got this I tested its individual (unteamed) performance directly in the host OS and found it to be slightly less than the onboard one and variable performance however it usually managed in excess of 40-50MB/s the windows file transfer dialog so I thought that seemed respectable, still beats 100Mbit performance. I have a gigabit router, switches and Cat6 cables to most things and often see 90MB/s in Windows file transfer between the server and desktop. I'd consider a PCI card with multiple ports as the USB 3 support seems a little "beta" on a few chipsets and boards with different peripherals. However, if USB3 is your only option like me I'd recommend this.
