    Anker USB C Hub, 4-in-1 Aluminum USB C Adapter with Ethernet Port, 3 USB 3.0 Ports, for MacBook Pro 2016/2017/2018, iPad Pro 2018, Chromebook, XPS, Samsung S9, and More

    • The USB-C port is fine, but I already had a plethora of USB accessories that made my MacBook Air useful in all situations and now with the new port, I found myself a little anxious
    • The three USB 3.0 ports works and the Ethernet adapter.
    • The Ethernet port did not work with my MacBook Pro where the factory Apple adapter did
    • Excellent supplemental ports for travel.
    • Its unfortunate that Apple has put us in the position where something like this is absolutely necessary, yet still doesn't address all the issues of only having one port
    • On the other hand, USB A ports always work fine, no issue there.
    • On my cheap one, the USB-C port broke off inside my laptop but luckily did not break the port
    • This cleared up 3 used ports for me!
    • The ethernet port failed after about two seeks of usage, the lights flash
    • My laptop didn't come with an ethernet port and I needed it for work, this made it super easy to add a reliable ethernet port and additional USB 3.0 ports
    • After that the ethernet port stopped working and even worse it prevents my wifi connection from working when plugged in.
    • All my USB equipment (mostly flash drives) is 3.0 now, so additional 3.0 ports would be handy - and it just seemed wrong to waste that new USB-C port
    • it acts like it fits into the USB-C port but variously during the day it will not transmit
    • Would be nice if it was powered and pass through charged to free up a port
    • Tried multiple mice and ports, no luck
    • Following some great customer service from Anker, who sent me a new dongle to test with, I was able to determine the the fault actually lies in the Apple HDMI/USB-C dongle; the USB-C port only supports a USB-C power supply, not a USB-C data connection.

    • Being an Electrical Engineer, I believe there is an insulating issue with the USB-A ports on the dongle to the body of the unit causing interference that severely affects the range of the mice!Secondly, for those concerned about battery life while leaving these plugged in, these units draw current even when nothing is plugged in, which is normal as anything plugged into a power sources draws a minuscule amount of current
    • USB2 ports don't like USB flash/disk drives - they drop out/disconnect after a while
    • Since my 12" MacBook only has one USB C port available, I cannot charge my laptop while using the Ethernet adapter
    • The ethernet port works, but I'm having lag issues for my Anker wireless mouse when I'm using the USB hub.#Update
    • The metal piece plugs into the usb-c port on the computer is too flimsy.
    • the ethernet port did not work on my Macbook Pro 15
    • OSX will disable a USB port if it starts pulling too much power
    • Just wish it had a charging port as well
    • The three USB 3.0 ports work well for the devices I use.

    • Bought this several months back, and suddenly the ethernet port stopped working
    • Actually, the port works very well and seems well built.
