USB to Ethernet Cable 6 FT, 3.0 A Male to RJ45 Male Cord, Directly Connected, Aluminum Portable Gigabit LAN Network Cable for Laptop, PC, Switch, More, Braided with 5 Pcs Ties

First of all, I love the length of this I can literally run it from the front to the back of the house. I can sit outside on my laptop and be connected to the modem and have no connectivity issues whatsoever. The cable is so strong that my cats cannot chew on it and that’s huge. Since cat owners know that they love to chew through iPod charger cables and anything else they seem to know how to find. I bought this because I work from home seasonally and this gets the job done.

First and foremost, this worked immediately for me with a Windows 11 laptop. Plugged one end into a live ethernet port connected to my work network and the other into the laptop's USB C port. Already had the laptop's wifi shut off just to test. Didn't have to change any settings. The laptop just found the internet within 20 seconds and I was able to pull up a browser and launch a speed test in under the first minute plugged in. Was as fast as my network would allow, so I'm very pleased with it living up to the promise of function and performance.As far as the cable itself goes: Beefy is a word that comes to mind. Thick braided cord with robust metal end caps. Nice snug fit for both connectors. However, if your USB-C female port is anyhow counter-sunk into the device frame, you may need to reconsider this cable. The USB-C end housing steps from the male end to 0.5" in housing, then again to 0.75" in housing width.The cable is a tad bit bulky for those with travel space concerns, but if the alternative is a dongle and also an ethernet cable, then it's about the same, but all in one package. All things being equal as far as travel bulk is concerned, I still prefer this single unit cable so I don't lose just one part of it. But something to consider, as the 6' cable when coiled up is a 5.5" diameter bundle that sits a full inch off the table in height. You could wrap it tighter, but you'd be going against the cable's natural flex resistance at that point.

Easy to use, sturdy, good length, connects well.

At the time of this review, I've been using it for a few hours so I will update accordingly in the future if something changes.First off, it works. Plug and play simply enough. I was pretty skeptical given the fact it didn't have that many ratings currently but it actually works and I no longer need to use an Ethernet adapter/dongle.I've used it on my ASUS Zephyrus G14 laptop as well as Samsung Galaxy S23. Pretty consistent speeds around 300+ Mbps which is what I normally get on Wifi but maybe slightly faster. I have 5G home internet so speeds will always fluctuate compared to fiber/cable.For what it's worth, I've also used it on my PS5 by sharing through Android Ethernet tethering. Speeds are also about the same as if it was plugged into the router at 180+ Mbps.Some technical details; Windows detects it as ASIX AX88179A USB 3.2 Gen1 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter. Speed 1000/1000 (Mbps).The only concerning thing is that it does get fairly warm on the USB C of the cable. The various Ethernet adapters/dongles I've used in the past do not get this warm so I wonder if there will be overheating issues in the future.Again, I've only tested it for a few hours but I will do more prolong tests with gaming and other use cases to see how well it holds up.Highly recommended if you need a plug and plug cable and don't want to use an adapter.

High-quality product. I ordered the 4-foot length, and it was connecting my router and Windows 11 laptop USB-C port in less than a minute. I don't expect to have any problems with it because of its sturdy construction.

This cable worked fine for about a month or so. Long enough to get past the return cutoff date. Ends got hot and cable stopped sending data! Now I can't even get help from the vendor!Guess I'm out the cost and will buy from someone else.Put in a one star only because I can't put in a minus star.

I use this for my gaming laptop which does not have an ethernet port. Works great very sturdy cable my main grievance though is that the usb c side port is heavy so the cord has a downward tilt. I’m just concerned over time this could pose stress on the usb c port it’s plugged into. The ethernet side the clip if anything is too sturdy it’s pretty hard to get out so just be careful when using it for the first time. I have the 25’ and 50’ and you get what you pay for.Four stars for the usb c port end weight issue i feel that can be improved on or changing that ends design to not have as much weight on your laptops portI mainly play fighting games so latency, connection and input delay is crucial. Does as intended and would recommend.

Very good
