    Anker 3-Port USB 3.0 Portable Data Hub with 1 Gbps Ethernet Port Network Adapter for MacBook, Mac Pro/Mini, iMac, XPS, Surface Pro, Notebooks, Desktop PCs, USB Flash Drives, Mobile HDD, and More

    • My laptop didn't have an ethernet port, so this was a great way for me to get more reliable internet connection and make USB peripherals easier to hook up all at once
    • For those using a Surface, this provides a convenient direct connection to an ethernet cable while adding additional USB ports.
    • It worked better than expected good connection for my router and pc
    • Fast, solid connection, no problems at all
    • Or if you are downloading a file with a very fast internet connection, reading/writing on an external drive will become sluggish
    • I used to have trouble maintaining a connection to the network with my other USB 3.0 Ethernet connection, but since getting the Anker 3-Port USB 3.0 HUB with 10/100/1000, I haven't had that issue.
    • Connection stable.
    • My MBPro just started throwing "Drive Improperly Removed" messages when the connections were all solid
    • If I use an external micro-B HDD with it, it loses ethernet connection for a few seconds until the drive spins up
    • Very fast connection works great with my Surface Pro 2017.
    • Very fast connection works great with my Surface Pro 2017.
    • Also gives 3 USB connections (1 used for this device) for a total of 4 usable USB 3 connections on the MacBook pro
    • I'm not a big fan of using Wi-Fi and always prefer a wired connection.
    • This is a perfect solution for providing extra USB3 ports as well as a wired Ethernet connection for my 2015 Macbook Pro
    • I am using this with my Intel Compute Stick and the connection is far more stable and using wifi
    • Works great as secondary connection to a vSphere system, while the built-in network connection still maintains the office network connectivity
    • I think that is key to get a good connection, as it does not
    • I then plugged it into a Windows 10 laptop and it installed almost instantly, without my doing anything, and had a connection faster than I'd have believed
    • I just bought a Lenovo Yoga 900, and it has limited connection ports for external devices.
    • No issues so far -- reliable, fast network connection.
    • Fast and consistent connection on both Ethernet and USB
    • so it definitely does not slow down the connection (thank you USB 3.0)
    • Fantastic Design; Robust Network Connection.
    • My Wacom Intuos tablet and ethernet connection do not work through this hub on my Windows 10 laptop.
    • The usb A of a pen drive end up being too much hot, I don't think it is normal.3 - sometimes the system (Linux) stop seeing the device and the connection is lost and only returns after remove and reinsert the device.
    • My ethernet port on my desktop pc quit working, and my wireless connection to my router was awful.
