Review: Simple plug and play adapter that fixes WiFi issues with a fast wired link - I picked up this WAVLINK USB-C to Ethernet adapter to give a laptop a reliable wired connection. Setup could not have been easier. I plugged it in, the driver installed automatically, and within seconds the connection was live. Speeds are exactly what I expect from a gigabit line, and the adapter stays cool in normal use. The cable segment is just long enough to give some flexibility without becoming messy on the desk. It is especially useful when streaming, downloading large files, or doing any kind of online gaming where WiFi can be inconsistent. A small note, as with most dongles, it is good to avoid putting pressure on the USB-C port while it is plugged in, but that is just normal care. If you want to stabilize a laptop or tablet connection with minimal fuss, this adapter does the job very well.
Review: Cool! - This little guy is fast and sleek! Just beware, linux users: you will probably have to manually download and install the realtek network driver from wavlink's website in order to achieve up to advertised speeds. Its simple, maybe 3 or 4 prompts. Tons of info online as well for this specific process.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s worked pretty well for me; but I’m more hermit than expert…
*by J***N on February 8, 2026*

I’m rather old school when it comes to networking- I don’t care much for wi-fi. Even worse; I have been “out of the loop” for a while. I was definitely skeptical about an Ethernet connection over USB of any sort. I have been very much surprised by the incredible speed increase & the “5G” port isn’t such a waste anymore (Idk why they call it 5G if the actual speed is 330mbps & that’s considered “good”). I have had to delete & totally reload my iPhone a handful of times. While it’s not a direct comparison- an HP laptop on Windows 11 took about 10 mins on GbE. A MacBook Air with similar specs & CONNECTED VIA THIS ADAPTER- it took just over 5mins. I have yet to connect the adapter via Windows; but Mac OS required nothing to get 5G (or at least achieve maximum potential). It has gotten very warm on a few occasions; but mostly works without issue. Being that my knowledge base is rather obsolete & I do a lot with my phone; I can’t comment on how well this adapter works with moderate/heavy use. I have noticed that certain pages/ privacy settings/ tasks tend to cause increases in device temp & decrease in network speed (the MacBook is relatively new, I don’t have many apps loaded, websites all function differently based on cookie settings, etc.) I have experienced (2) episodes in which this adapter got too hot to touch & the network connection dropped (both happened in the last week- which may indicate a quality/ longevity issue). Though I don’t spend even 10% of the day online; I still recommend this as improvement for just about anyone with access to a hardwired Ethernet connection; especially gamers & home offices.
