## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very high quality
*by J***R on April 26, 2025*

Everything about this just screams quality. I've never seen a special USB-C connector before, but this definitely has that. It's just barely thicker than others, so it's a tad tight going in, but the connection is very secure as a result. The same is true of the ethernet port.It's plug-and-play on every device I've tested. Anything with a USB-C connection seems to get the full ethernet speeds, and without needing driver installation or anything.It easily reaches advertised speeds, fits securely, and is solid metal construction. I don't know what else you could want.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This adapter works great with blazing speed!
*by K***A on May 4, 2025*

I needed a USB-C to Ethernet adapter for my 5Gbps network to connect to my iMac. After trying many different brands, the Sabrent adapter stood out as the best, offering the most stable connection with minimal dropouts. It’s incredibly reliable, especially if you need consistent speeds for uploading and downloading large documents and files. Totally worth keeping!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important details for Linux users - get the latest kernel modules!
*by E***S on February 27, 2025*

Works as expected out of the box on Windows 11.However, if you're on Linux or BSD you'll need to make sure that you're running a somewhat recent version of the r8152 driver. This device uses an r8157 chipset which is supported properly only in newer versions of the driver. I tried to find release notes for the driver to identify when support was actually added but those don't seem to exist anywhere.Even the upcoming Ubuntu release beta - 25.04 Plucky Puffin - only includes version 1.12.13 of the r8152 kernel module. This is fine for other adapters in the family, including 2.5G adapters, but won't recognize or properly initialize the R8157 chip.If the newer driver versions aren't available, a fallback driver will be used that results in very flaky behavior. Connections are negotiated at 705 mb/s, for instance, and actual throughput is inconsistent, fluctiating dramatically over time.Thankfully this can be fixed by finding an updated package for the r8152 kernel module th at works with your distro and installing it. For ubuntu I used the "awesometic/realtek-r8152-dkms" package on github via the PPM method they recommend in the readme.With the latest driver version installed - 2.19.2 when I'm writing this review - the device set itself up properly, negotiated a 5G-BASE-T conneciton, and worked as expected.
