## Description

Wavlink USB C to Ethernet Adapter, Network Adapter Compatible with USB C Laptop, Aluminum Portable USB-A & Type-C to RJ45 Adapter Compatible with Mac, Windows. 1. Faster Than Gigabit - Double the performance of a traditional Gigabit Ethernet adapter when used with switches or routers capable of 5Gbps for faster file transfers, smoother video conferencing, and seamless streaming

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: Good Ethernet Adapter, runs cooler than most and has consistent speeds - I tested this saturating my network for 24 hours and it kept up without any issues. It runs warm to the touch as expected, but still cooler than other 5Gbps and 2.5Gbps adapters I own from the venting and how they designed the thermal. No drivers was needed on MacOS, Windows or my iPad Pro that had the latest updates, it was compatible with all of them. For the full 5Gbps speeds your device should have a network and cable that would support it and a device that has USB-C 3.2 but it will still connect at 2.5Gbps with older USB-C 3.0 devices. I have tried other 5Gbps adapters that became unstable and could not get this one to fail Connectivity is fast over an 8 meter cable to the gateway and it’s built well.

If you’ve ever wanted to turn your flaky Wi-Fi into a rock-solid wired connection without summoning a tech wizard, the WAVLINK 5Gbps USB-C to Ethernet Adapter is your new best friend. Plug it in, and boom—instant internet. No drivers, no drama, no existential crisis about why things never work the first time. The speed? Fantastic. It’s like my laptop went from “meh” to “let’s download the entire internet before lunch.” Streaming, gaming, massive file transfers—it handles it all without breaking a sweat. Build quality feels solid too. It’s small, sleek, and doesn’t look like it came out of a cereal box. Honestly, for something that just works this well out of the gate, I’m giving it a 10/10. Would I buy it again? Absolutely. In fact, I might buy a second one just to flex on my other adapters.
