  1. mentholcase

    Serves its purpose well. I bought two, using one for a Nintendo Switch, and the other for a small laptop without an ethernet port.

  2. JPRominger

    I love this thing
    I can’t believe it is as powerful

  3. John

    Product was as described and staff were helpful in helping me find what I needed

  4. CoryC

    Good product it worked amazingly with my computer and i dont regret buying.

  5. Unknown

    Gast enough, many uses and really comes in handy..

  6. AmyH

    Excellent for my needs. Was just the product I was looking for!

  7. TomW

    Downloaded long video in no time at all. My laptop does not have an ethernet jack and trying to download the long video over Wi-Fi was taking forever, even though I have very fast Wi-Fi. I hooked this device up directly to my router and the video downloaded within minutes. I would recommend this to anybody who has a laptop without an ethernet jack and needs to download large files. One of the best devices I have purchased in a long time.

    Works great. Handy – very small to keep in my laptop bag without taking up a lot of space and without being heavy. Although I don’t usually need to use it all of the time, it’s great to have for when I do need it. In fact, just a few minutes before seeing the request from Best Buy to do a review of this, I was in a situation where I was downloading something from the Internet onto my laptop using the home’s Wi-Fi, and I was in a corner of my home where the Wi-Fi signal is very weak and the large download was taking a much longer time to complete. There was a network cable outlet in the wall next to the laptop, and I had a network cable, but my laptop doesn’t have a built-in network cable input. So, I went looking for my j5create Ethernet adapter to hook up everything, and downloaded the file much faster now that it was being downloaded through a hard-wired connection. So, it was actually a life-saver for me right before I started to write this review.

  9. Squatch99

    We have good wifi throughout the house. But with this ethernet adapter coupled with a Zytel Network adapter I can have wired internet outdoors on our patio.

    I love my Dell 16″ Inspiron Lap Top even more now that I can connect ethernet using USB !

  10. CarleyM

    Great for wifi adapters. it lights up when it connected

  11. AlyssaK

    Works very well so I can connect an ether cord to my laptop. easy to use.

  12. groofy

    Gives more secure internet connection than wi-fi for a budget price. Definitely a must-consider,in my opinion, if your laptop does not have a built-in cat5 or 6 ethernet cable jack.

  13. JoelM

    Worked for my needs, just wish that new computers either had this item or had a spot for the telephone to gain internet availability..

  14. VickiB

    Needed a way to connect a new modem/router in a home with no computers equipped with an ethernet port, and there was no other internet option in the home. This adapter was easy to set up and worked perfectly to allow us to finish the modem/router connection!

  15. KevinS

    Excellent works as described, would recommend for anyone

  16. Kano13

    Needed this ethernet adapter and found it at Best Buy and did the trick. Very happy.

  17. KeyboardBestie

    Ok I bought 2 computers one from WFH and anothe personal both are amazing but. They dont have ethernet port but thanks God Best Buy sells this adapter all that i need

  18. JDun

    does what it is suppose to do. plug and play and you are ready to go. I love it when things are simple

  19. StephanieT

    It works great and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

  20. Slick1

    Quality adapter. Needed one in a hurry and Best Buy didn’t disappoint!

  21. NathanA

    Product is great and works exactly as advertised. There is no difference between using this and using the regular plug.

  22. LeviK

    It works just as well as plugging in an ethernet cable. Great for if your port stops working.

  23. MarkD

    Let me use any thing I need to connect works great and is portable

  24. JamesT

    I find the product very helpful, and the staff in the store knowledgeable and supportive

  25. DonInAlaska

    I am a service technician. I use my laptop to connect to equipment for Diagnostic purposes this little device allows me to use a tablet instead of a laptop. Easier to carry and far more durable more durable.

  26. DeniseJ

    Works well with my router and computer. Easy to set up and use and it’s affordable.

  27. GaryJ

    Great little adapter for USB-A ports. If your computer has an available USB-C port, get the USB-C version of these. Much faster.

  28. Richieusaguy

    This replaced a failing network card. I had to return a different one I bought there cause in did not say on the box it needed windows 10 only in the instructions. This one works with win 7 and up. Like other said I’m not sure it does the gig speed but might be a limitation of my desktop. I am using it in a 3.0 socket. It’s plenty fast.

  29. user828930

    This item is great I’ve had no problems with it the quality is very good I’d overall recommend this.

  30. RobertO

    Plug and play. Once I figured out the corroUSB port, I was getting almost a full gig download speed.

  31. MissClean

    Hey, my husband loves it. I have no complaints so far so good he loves it

  32. Timmer

    Works well and is handy to have in the laptop bag for those situations when wired Ethernet is the only way.

  33. FunkPilot

    Works perfectly. A great option if you don’t have gigabit LAN built in.

  34. TravisG

    Love the J5 stuff works every time and is built very well.

  35. Luis

    Bought this for my Nintendo switch, the latency has improved immensely and I no long suffer lag spikes or disconnects.

  36. Nikki

    Exactly what I needed and not too expensive. Glad I was able to find it in your store.

  37. Moka

    This is a great cable! If you are looking for a Ethernet cable, get this one!

  38. Unknown

    Needed to hard wire my Nintendo. Works good for gaming on my switch

  39. MyronCramer

    This usb Ethernet adapter is an essential accessory for todays laptops that don’t have an integrated Ethernet port.

  40. MichaelDjn

    Needed to get a replacement usb network card for client. Best Buy was closest and most affordable.
