Plug and Play Ethernet Adapter
If you don't have an ethernet connector this adapter works great - plug into USB-C port and off you go - true plug and play, not setup.

Slow speed
I bought this after being told it was suitable for USB3. I found it was delivering very slow speed when I required 5Gbps

Q: Will this Bonelk adapter work with any USB-C device?
A: No, it needs a USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 device that supports Ethernet over its USB-C port. Many laptops do, but some phones and tablets may not recognise wired networking, so device operating system support still matters.
Q: Does this adapter support full Gigabit Ethernet speeds?
A: Yes, it supports 1000Mbps when connected to a Gigabit-capable router or switch, a suitable Ethernet cable, and a device with USB-C or Thunderbolt 3. If any part of the network is slower, the connection will drop to that lower speed.
Q: Do I need to install software to use this USB-C to Ethernet adapter?
A: No, this Bonelk adapter is designed for plug and play use on compatible USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 devices. In practice, it should be recognised automatically, but operation still depends on your device and operating system supporting wired Ethernet.
Q: Can I use this adapter with a USB-A laptop or desktop computer?
A: No, this model has a USB-C male connector, so it is made for USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 ports rather than older USB-A ports. If your computer only has USB-A, a different adapter style would be the more suitable option.
Q: Is the 15cm cable length practical for everyday use?
A: Yes, the 15cm lead is suited to travel setups and keeps the adapter close to the laptop without a long cable hanging loose. It is useful on a desk or in a bag, but it is not intended to extend the reach to a distant Ethernet socket.
