Whether the driver from UGreen is a necessity is unclear, as my MacBook tested faster with a straight Ethernet connection than it did with the Ethernet linked through this USB adapter. The device works GREAT on a PC, without installing a driver! -- getting to speeds of 933 Mbps Download, and 850 Mbps upload. I bought the Model 20265, which includes three USP hub ports.
hi i followed your instruction on installing the driver on my macbook but when i tried to connect the ethernet cable its not working 😭😭😭 please help me
So do we necessarily have to download the software in order to get a direct connection with the wired internet going from the router to the adapter into the laptop? I thought you could just plug the internet HDMI into the adapter into the laptop and it would recognize the connection without downloading the software for the adapter
Using a AX88179 USB-C to Gigabit Ethernet. I downloaded the driver etc. and it works, but disconnects when my computer goes to sleep. It was the only one I could find on very short notice for my work during COVID-19. If I had a choice I would get a better adapter.
Sir rj45 usb gives Router to Mobile Internet. My Question Is Can we share Mobile Data through Rj45 to Router like Usb Theathering? Its Possible Plz ans Me
Am trying to connect the uGreen hub to an HP Envy laptop, running Windows 11 Home. Attaching the hub to a USB port, and the LAN cable to the adapter, No LAN connection pops up in the available networks list, just WiFi's. Did same with an older Dell Inspiron, one that has an Ethernet port, and had no problems. What's the "secret?"
My computer is hard-wired to our home network. Can I use this to connect a network-enabled printer to that computer? Basically, I'm trying to connect the printer to our network without using Wi-Fi (and the router is too far away to run a cable to it).
I tried to plug it in windows 10 laptop and it worked however it gives me only 5mbps which if i use wifi it gives me 30mbps. Do i really need to install a driver to have more faster internet?
Hi, i want to use nvidia GeforceNow service but my macbook pro 13 early 2015, has not a ethernet adapter and I really don't want to buy a 5Ghz router, so this device could be the solution? thanks
would a device like this work for this...i have a netbook with wifi and i want to bridge the connection to my desktop to provide it with internet..now my laptop doesnt have the ethenet port, could i use this device to connect and share internet to my desktop?
Just got myself one of these because I need another physical adapter for the virtual machines. The virtual network adapter binding to an in use, physical one causes too many issues. Hopefully one for VPN, one for LAN, and this one for virtual machines will get things working properly again.
Great Vid. I'm on a Macbook Pro early 2015. Can I connect with this USB Ethernet Adapter via ethernet cable to a router for configuration while using WLAN at the same time?
Yes they keep changing their website. I have updated the links a couple of times. The last time I updated the links was a few days ago. Check the links now, the new reference is "AX88179 Chipset" 😊
I bought this and everytime i connect it to my mac instead getting a fast internet its actually slower for example my wife speed is showing 160 but when I connect the ethernet cable it’s showing 60? Anyone can help please
what are the color of the lights blinking on your ethernet adapter? that is a big indication to what your speeds are. look on your router/switch and see what lights/color of lights are blinking on the other end.
if you connect 2 pc's together without a switch as in a straight cable you can do it but you will need a crossover ethernet cable. watch videos on crossover cables.
@@pharazar6666 Sorry mate, I'm on a Mac, not exactly sure how to debug for you, however would suggest you jump into device manager and try to uninstall/reinstall/update the drivers from there. Hope that helps.
I have an ethernet cable and this adapter. Do i need the windows 7 software? Or can i just plug it in? Can i do more than two? This is a pc not a laptop im talking about btw 😁
Hi, I have a MacBook Air from early 2014 and I recently installed the driver for your USB 3.0 ethernet network adapter. after installing the driver I plugged in my USB adapter and my ethernet cable but I still am not registering the adapter. I'm not sure if the installation didn't work or if my ethernet cable is the problem. should my USB adapter’s LEDs be lighting up when the ethernet cable is connected regardless of if it is registering on my computer?
If your device doesn't have an inbuilt ethernet port, chances are you won't have a network adapter in device manager. This kind of USB solution is meant for those situations.

I have question, does the ethernet have to be connected to WiFi router/modem? Or on the wall?
It’s comes from to power source of the router so I am not sure I think it’s connected to the power source but I am not sure

Unfortunately they keep changing the links on the website, otherwise it would be quite straight forward.
Will this work without a EARTHNET connection?
its not a wifi adapter. for that you would need a wifi to usb adapter.
Can an office phone that runs off of an Ethernet connection be connected and power a phone?
