5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding!
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2023
So if you have that new high buck 4k tv like I just got you may know that there are very few that come with a gig ethernet port. Almost all are limited to the old 10/100 ethernet ports. But most come with high speed 3.0 usb ports. So if your watching something such as Sony core this is fantastic! I setup my new Sony and had all the connections made
Powered it on and everything works like a charm. Plug and play. Super fast and yes it makes a huge difference. Its small and made very well. Hides nicely behind the tv. I highly recommend this item! You wont be sorry. Well worth the price. Which is also ecxellent!
