USB 2.0 10/100 Ethernet Adapter

This compact adapter adds a wired RJ45 network port to devices that lack one, using a USB 2.0 connection. It suits ultrabooks, MacBook Air models, Chromebooks, tablets and older consoles such as Wii or Wii U. The ASIX AX88772 chipset provides driver support across Windows, macOS, Linux and Chrome OS without extra software. It is a practical choice for anyone needing a stable cable link instead of Wi-Fi.

Build quality and daily use

The white housing is shielded and measures .5 ft in length, keeping cable clutter minimal on a desk or in a bag. A standard USB 2.0 plug draws power directly from the host, so no external supply is required. Link and activity LEDs give immediate visual confirmation of connection status. The RJ45 jack accepts ordinary Ethernet patch cables for routers, modems or switches.

Check your setup before ordering

Verify the host has a free USB 2.0 or 1.1 port and runs a supported operating system — Windows 10 through XP, macOS 10.6 through 10.11, Linux kernel 2.6 or 3.x, or Chrome OS. Windows RT and Android are explicitly unsupported. The adapter negotiates 10 or 100 Mbps Ethernet speeds; it will not reach gigabit rates. Ensure your network infrastructure offers 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX ports.

Questions about this item

What throughput does the USB 2.0 interface cap the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet link at in practice?

The adapter runs on USB 2.0's 480 Mbps bus, so the 100 Mbps wired link operates at full line rate without bottleneck.

What physical space and port type are needed to plug this adapter in?

It requires a free USB Type-A port and adds a short 0.5 ft cable with an RJ45 jack, so allow room for the dongle and Ethernet cable bend radius.

How is the adapter installed, and what step do users often miss?

Plug it into a USB port; the OS usually loads the ASIX AX88772 driver automatically, but on older Windows or Linux kernels you may need to install the driver manually before the link lights appear.
