La conexión se mantiene estable, no hay caidas ni nada, la velocidad de transmisión corresponde a la del gigabit ethernet y se detecta como tal en el sistema.
As laptops have evolved over the past 20 years, they have become smaller, cheaper, and much lighter, but at the cost of far fewer hardware features. One of the features long ago removed from laptops is an ethernet port. Such a port allows for an ethernet (wired) connection to the internet which in home environments is much faster and more stable than a wireless connection.
This adapter nicely solves this loss. With so few USB 3.0 ports on the modern laptop, I have this adapter plugged into my laptop's multi-port USB 3.0 hub instead, and it works fine. The Amazon webpage barely mentions it in the fine print, but this adapter works OK on Windows 11, and is plug and play on Windows 11, too. Windows 11 on my laptop even recognizes that the ethernet adapter is connected to the internet and automatically changes the laptop's internet connection to ethernet from wireless. This may well be one of the few things Windows 11 does properly.
Note that the home user has to supply the ethernet cable to run from the internet modem to this adapter when plugged into a laptop. Amazon has a wide selection of ethernet cables, one of which should be ordered at the same time as this adapter. Be sure to get a cable that is long enough!
