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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I found that the WiFi on the Switch is pretty poor and that it was giving me much slower ...
*by N***L on 4 December 2017*

This works perfectly with the Nintendo Switch. I found that the WiFi on the Switch is pretty poor and that it was giving me much slower speeds then it should be, even though my Nintendo Switch is in the same room as my router. So I bought this adapter to see if it makes an difference and it made a huge improvement I ran a connection test in the Switch's settings and the speed it shows when using its built in WiFi is around 13.4, but with an Ethernet cable the shows it as 77.3. So I'm very happy with the results. It is very easy to set up. The adapter was instantly recognised by the console after i plugged it into one of the USB ports on the switch's dock (i used the USB slot on the inside of the dock at the back as this is a USB 3.0 port) and then plugged an Ethernet cable into the adapter. There is a little cable logo that shows up at the top of the Switch main menu to show you that you are connected online via a wired connection and you're pretty much good to go from there.
