Lucy ★★★★★

Setup was instant on my MacBook and it immediately saw my full 2.5Gbps connection — the dual USB-C and USB-A support means I can use it on older laptops too.

Grace C. ★★★★★

Finally, no more waiting around for big file transfers—this adapter handles 2.5G speeds perfectly with my USB-C laptop. The included USB-A cable makes it super easy to switch between my older devices too.

Eva W. ★★★★★

Blew my mind how much faster large file transfers are compared to my old Gigabit adapter—that 2.5Gbps speed really shines when backing up my media server. The fact it works with both USB-C and USB-A ports means I can use it on my laptop and desktop without any fuss.
