## Description

Buy

Review: Works flawlessly with Firestick 4k - I bought this after reading other reviews about the performance with the Firestick 4k. My firestick was connected to my router via WiFi (5g connection) and streaming was, by and large, usually fine. Occasionally we'd have the odd buffering issue, but watching content from Prime, Youtube, Netflix etc was pretty much fine. The massive issue that I had though was streaming content from my NAS drive (WD My Cloud Home) which is connected to my router via ethernet. Trying to play anything 4k from it was HORRENDOUS. Videos would start and play, and a few minutes in, you'd get the 'spinning wheel of doom' where it would buffer. Now I like my videos to be super-high quality - most of my 4k videos are 30, 40, even 50gb in size. I guess that the amount of bandwidth that the wireless module on the firestick can handle is not sufficient to cope with such a massive amount of data that I was asking for it to. So after doing a lot of digging and research, opted for this particular make and model, as it's one of the few gigabit ethernet adapters out there that is compatible with the firestick - and let me tell you, it has worked wonders! When I load up a 50gb video file from my NAS drive now, it starts playing INSTANTLY with zero buffering. Want to skip ahead 10 minutes? If I did that when I was on WiFi, I may as well have gone and put the kettle on for a brew because it'd take a good 2 minutes to catch up (buffering... buffering...) - now when I skip, there's zero delay. Yes, you do need to buy at OTG power cable, but they're only a couple of quid. All in all, I couldn't be happier with my purchase!
Review: Easy to use network adapter which works with Nintendo Switch - I bought this item for two purposes: to use with my laptop on the odd occasion where I need a wired network connection, and also to provide a stable Ethernet connection for my Nintendo Switch. I'm pleased to say it satisfies on both counts, and is well-priced when compared to the official offering from Nintendo, and other similar adapters. The item was nicely packaged in an easy-to-open box, containing the adapter itself, a mini-CD containing drivers, and an instruction leaflet. Mac users need to download the driver from the manufacturer's website (searching the Downloads area by product number was the easiest way as they have a lot of similar devices). Once the driver was installed and my Mac rebooted, the adapter worked perfectly. When connected to the Nintendo Switch, the cable is long enough to allow you to use the rear USB port and close the flap with the main body of the adapter outside on the right. Once connected to your router via Ethernet cable, you just need to go into the Switch's network settings and select the wired connection. I didn't even need to reboot the console. Once you see the wi-fi icon change to a wired icon you know you've been successful. I understand (but haven't tested) that this will also work with the Wii U. I'll confirm later and will update the review. Edit: This adapter doesn't work with the Wii U. This alternative is listed as compatible with Wii U (and Switch): UGREEN Ethernet Adapter, USB Network Adapter ,USB 2.0 to RJ45 Lan Adapter,Support Nintendo Switch, Wii, Wii U, for Macbook, Chromebook,Windows 10, 8.1,Mac OS X 10.11,Surface Pro,Linux Black . I guess the Wii U doesn't have drivers for the newer chipset, whereas the Switch is backwards-compatible with older adapters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good, helps with Internet speed but unplug when finished.
*by I***H on 13 February 2019*

Fantastic product. I connected it to my sky q booster and it works like a charm to my laptop which has no RJ45 (ethernet) port. But do unplug from pc when finished, as I left it in when I turned off my booster and every so often my computer would constantly play the Windows unplug sound. That was annoying but that seems like a problem with the pc rather than the product. U GREEN are also a fantastic company, I've bought many electronics from them and I haven't been disappointed.
