USB 2.0 to 10/100 Ethernet Adapter

This adapter adds a wired RJ45 network port to any device with a spare USB 2.0 socket. It is aimed at ultrabook, MacBook Air, Chromebook, Surface or Wii U owners who need a stable cable connection instead of Wi-Fi. The ASIX AX88772 chipset handles the link without requiring external power. It draws energy directly from the USB bus and works with Windows, macOS, Linux and Chrome OS.

Upgrade from wireless-only connectivity

The jump is worth it when wireless drops, latency or congestion make video calls, large file transfers or gaming unreliable. Full 10/100 Mbps Ethernet runs over the USB 2.0 480 Mbps bus, so the wired link is not bottlenecked by the port. Buyers who need gigabit speeds or a multi-gig backbone cannot use this adapter because it tops out at 100 Mbps.

Plug-and-play installation

Driver support is built into Windows 10, 8.1 and earlier, macOS 10.6 through 10.11, Linux kernel 2.6 or 3.x and Chrome OS; no separate download is usually required. Link and activity LEDs confirm the physical connection immediately. The only common issue is attempting to use it with Windows RT or Android, which the chipset does not support.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter need a separate power supply to run?

No, it draws power from the USB 2.0 port so no external power adapter is required.

Do I need to install a driver before the adapter works on Windows 10?

Windows 10 includes a driver for the ASIX AX88772 chipset, so the adapter works immediately after plugging it in.

The RJ45 port shows link and activity LEDs — what do they indicate?

The LEDs show when a network link is established and blink when data is being transmitted or received.
