Review: Plugable USB 3.0 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Macbook Air

The Plugable USB 3.0 Ethernet Adapter is a USB 3.0 powered gigabit Ethernet network connection capable of speeds up to 10/100/1000Mbps. The adapter is convenient for non-Ethernet equipped laptops such as the MacBook Air. This adapter instantly transforms a USB port (backwards compatible with USB 1,2, and 3) into a full wired network Ethernet connection.

You will need to download and install the driver for Windows or Mac. After installation, we noticed a new network connection in system preferences called AX88179. We plugged in our adapter then attached a live Ethernet cord into the adapter. The network connection showed green and connected. Initial file transfer speeds over our network looked excellent using this adapter.
