It was truly plug-and-play; as soon as I connected it, I saw a massive jump in download speeds and a much more stable ping for video calls and large file transfers compared to my wireless setup. The build quality is solid, and the foldable cord design makes it very portable for tossing in a laptop bag. It handles Gigabit speeds without breaking a sweat and doesn’t seem to overheat even during heavy use. My only minor gripe isn't with the hardware itself, but with the product listing. It’s a bit of a pity about the title mentioning WiFi; this is strictly a wired Ethernet adapter. Including "WiFi" in the name is quite misleading for anyone specifically looking for a wireless dongle. Pros: Instant setup (Plug & Play) Reliable Gigabit speeds Compact, travel-friendly design Cons: Confusing product title (it’s for wired connections only!) If you need a reliable LAN port for your laptop or desktop, this is the one to get. Just don't let the "WiFi" in the title fool you—this is all about that sweet, stable cable life! Review: Amazing piece of kit - an internet connection lifesaver! - Having moved to online working with a laptop that doesn't have an ethernet port, I became very aware that my livelihood was in the fickle arms of WiFi. This item - from the recognised TP Link brand and at a very reasonable price indeed - looked to be my trusty saviour. Thankfully, I have only had to use this once due to a WiFi issue, however it worked PERFECTLY. It was a WiFi cut-out with no warning in the middle of a meeting, so I didn't have time to mess about figuring things out... but this was literally plug and play. No installation required, just plug it in to an appropriate port, connect to your router via an ethernet cable and Bob's your uncle, good old-fashioned wired internet. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone wanting a wired connection (who doesn't have an ethernet port) or anyone for whom constant connection is a necessity for work. It really is a no-brainer at this price. ## Features - Fastest USB 3.0 and Gigabit solution ensure network speeds up to 1000 Mbps for faster large file transfers and downloads, seamless streaming, immersive gaming, and more - Plug and Play in Nintendo Switch, Windows 10/8.1 and Linux OS - Foldable and Portable design ideally suits your Ultrabook, Weight: 20g / 0.71 Oz and Size: 2.8 x 1.0 x 0.6 in.

This item - from the recognised TP Link brand and at a very reasonable price indeed - looked to be my trusty saviour.

It does not work on all android devices especially A11+ *by P***Y on 1 March 2026* ATTENTION: Well made adapter but check its suitability as it does not work with all android devices especially A11+ NOTE: The WHITE plastic Models UE300c and UE300 claim to use the RTL8153 chipset The BLACK plastic Model UE306 claims to use the AX88179 chipset SUMMARY This is a reasonable well made adapter which works with SOME android devices but not all. In my case it works with 1) a Samsung R35 phone running Android 16 2) and Galaxy Tab A running android 11 3) BUT it does not work with the new Galaxy A11+ tablet also running android 16 The adapter labelling says that the hardware is version 2. The version number is not mentioned in any product literature or elsewhere - this is an critical omission as this information is important to the buying decision Version 2 hardware is understood to use the ASIX AX88179A chipset. The Version 1 adapter is understood to use the Realtek RTL8153 chipset. The Realtek RTL8153 chipset is believed to be more compatible with more android devices and versions. I needed an adapter which works with an A11+ tablet and therefore need an adapter which used the Realtek chipset. TP Link is a good brand but unlike other brands of adapter this version of the hardware does not use the RealTek chipset. So it is important to confirm before purchase that the V2 ASIX AX88179A chipset is compatible with your device VALUE: The price point (£9.99) is good value if this adapter works with your devices. The make quality and packaging justify this price point. A lower price point would represent a very good buy - if it works MY NEED: I needed a USB C to Ethernet Adapter to connect a Galaxy A11+ tablet to the internet in a location where there was no Wi-Fi. CONSTRUCTION: The adapter is well made and well packaged. ## Frequently Bought Together - TP-Link UE306 WiFi Adapter, USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter, USB to RJ45 Lan Wired Adapter for PC/Laptop/Ultrabook, Plug and Play in Nintendo Switch, Supports Windows 10/8.1, Linux OS - TP-Link UE300C USB C to Ethernet Adapter, USB 3.0 Type-C to RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter for Ultrabook, Chromebook, Laptop, Desktop, Plug & Play for Nintendo Switch, Windows 10&8.1, Linux OS - UGREEN Ethernet Cable 5M, Cat 8 Internet Cable Flat High-Speed 40Gbps 2000Mhz Network Cable, Gigabit Braided RJ45 LAN Cable Patch Cord Compatible for PC/Laptop, PS5, Xbox, Modem, Router, Switch, TV --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/409181207-tp-link-ue306-gigabit-usb-3-0-to-ethernet-adapter](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/409181207-tp-link-ue306-gigabit-usb-3-0-to-ethernet-adapter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-31*
