Customer Review: No CD with drivers?????
Summary: 1 Stars
The reason I bought an ethernet adapter is to connect to the internet via my DSL ISP provider. I received my shipment. Inside is the USB ethernet adapter and a website to log into to get the drivers. DUH!!! I bought the adapter so I could log on to the internet. Now I need to log on to the internet to get the ethernet adapter to work. Does anybody see the irony here?
Now I've got to log on to the internet to get the drivers to make the damned thing work. OK, I'll find a work around. I sign up for a free dial-up service. OK, now we're making progress.
I jump through all the hoops to get signed up and finally I am able to access the internet. I type in the URL and wait forever for the dialup to download the install for the drivers. Guess what!!! I've finally got the drivers downloaded but I can't install them because they are a ".sys" extension and my computer says I can't play with sys file extensions.
I'm a happy camper...
Customer Review: Extremely easy way to add Ethernet to your computer
Summary: 5 Stars
The ethernet that came with my home computer recently died. I ordered this one from work (during my lunch hour, of course). Initially, I was apprehensive with the packaging and "Made in China" written in the back. But after I finished installing it, I couldn't believe how easy it was. It literally took me five minutes to get it installed. I took it out of the box, plugged it into my USB port. Windows goes through its detection phase. I select "CD-ROM", put the CD driver in the CD tray, and clicked Next. Windows found the driver a few seconds later. I just moved the ethernet cable from the dead ethernet jack to this new one and I was surfing the web again. In fact, I'm writing this review using my new USB to Ethernet adapter! :)
The only difference was that the shell was green instead of blue, but green's my favorite color so I actually preferred the color change.

This is a cheap way to connect an Ethernet cable into a USB port.
1) This item is made in China and the package looks like something you find in a 99 cent store, so there is no costumer service.
2) The driver disc that comes with this adapter and is needed to be installed before your computer recognizes the device is a MINI-DISC, not the standard size compact disc so be prepared for that.
3) This adapter DOES work just fine for me on my Sony Vaio Laptop that has no Ethernet connection ports, only two USB ports so I received exactly what I wanted and paid about $3.50 + S&H for.
Caution: My only set back with this adapter is that it gets extremely hot. Not hot enough to burn you on contact but it is uncomfortably hot and I would not leave it plugged in longer than I needed to.
Customer Review: Doesn't work, its a lemon
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this hoping to get an easy & cheap ($3+shipping) fix for a broken ethernet port. At first it appeared to work, it installed and even connected but I could not connect to the internet or other computers on the network. I had to move it between 2 computers and 2 networks to figure out that though it installed and "connected", it wasn't really working. Whats worse, it was cheap to buy, so I'm not sure if its worth the return shipping charge to get my 3 bucks back.
Spend a little more now buying a more expensive branded UBS-ethernet adapter like I had to (I bought something similar from Trendnet) and save yourself some heartburn.
Customer Review: NOT AT ALL WORTH IT!!
Summary: 1 Stars
The drivers never worked and the computer I was useing it on was not old the computer was running Windows Xp. It was like installing an old printer that did not work. And if you have any problem to bad there is no company to call, no web site nothing. I was just trying to stay out of having to mess around with the inside of my computer. but in the end that was exactly what I had to do save your self the problem. Don't buy this. Do what in the end I had to do get the d-link ethernet adater. It will save time and money. GO D-LINK!!
