Good hub for most of the daily tasks, be careful with the power drain.
Very good port extended, combined with powerful 1Gbps network adapted. Exactly what I was looking for.The only reason to give 4 stars instead of 5 is the fact that my Western Digital external HDD does not seem to work well in backup mode, when working through this hub. The backup starts and at some point it just fails. The same HDD, on the same machine, works perfectly when connected directly, i.e. the only difference between working and non-working backup is this hub. When its present, the backup just fails. Another similar issue I observe is when I connect my Logitech universal receiver to this hub. In this case it seems to start losing connection very frequently, resulting in inability to use the keyboard and mouse smoothly.Overall I think the hub has some power issues, maybe making an extra power supply in the future would be good idea, when the user needs it.I have not noticed any other USB3 interruptions in other scenarios, and I use this constantly for networking, combined with USB3 audio/video conferencing. However, the audio conferencing device has its own power supply, i.e. it does not rely on the hub.

Superb product in my opinion
Excellent easy to use adapter. Great for my tablet as it has only 1 usb port and no rj45 socket. Sturdy build and fast delivery. I highl recommend this product.

Great for 1GB for FireTV
Really great adapter, I've used it with my FireTV stick, gives me 1 GB via the Ethernet cable, and you can plug in a USB key in if you need extra space on the stick. Much better than the “official” FireTV adapter.

Brilliant I use one on my laptop and also I use them on my Firestick Max
Brilliant I use one on my laptop and also I use them on both of my Firestick Max. My laptop I use it for Ethernet as my laptop doesn't have a Ethernet port. On my Firesticks I use them for external storage, I have a 64 gig flash drive in them also the living room I also use the Ethernet port on my Firestick.They are so easy to use just plug and play.They are very handy to have. Also they are well made.

Very worthwhile upgrade in most scenarios.
I've been struggling with the dreaded circle of frustration when streaming shows etc. Dedpite gave a genuine 50Mb download speed (usually delivers 35-40) .. with a Firedtick .. I was restricted to wi-fi. Not now! I'm lucky to gave an ethernet connection available so this was the perfect upgrade for me. I bought the 4k Firestick because my original FireTV was feeling a bit "sluggish" .. so all in all.. the whole experience is lightening fast. I also have a 64gb USB stick and bluetooth mini keyboard plugged in. Leaving one USB port spare.The green unit comes very well packaged ... and clear instructions although I looked it up on YouTube first. Highly recommended but it's a no brainer if you have an ethernet connection available. Yes wi-fi can be just as fast but in my house there are too many competing devices for bandwidth that I prefer to have online. Enjoy!

Works well over a LAN but.... non std power port
I have had uGreen products in the past and have overall been most happy with them.Depending on your needs this may be perfect as a Gigabit LAN option over USB 3.Overall, the build quality is average, not particularly solid and no individual USB switches to turn on and off sticks or drives that you might have plugged into it.You can see in photo 5 the small multi language booklet that comes with it, as well as a mini CD for drivers. No drivers were needed when I tested its LAN capabilities when plugged into my main PC's USB 3 port. Windows 10x64 being the OS.In photo 4 you can see the transfer speed over the LAN (around 125MB/s is the theoretical max and it typically achieves 108MB/s or so) in the respects of LAN performance over a Gigabit LAN and Windows 10 it is great.Then I connected it to my Amazon Cube via an adaptor.A few things to consider .....USB 1 and 2 max power output is 500mA and USB 3 is 900mA. That is the maximum that can be drawn over these ports, but you will have to see each devices spec to ensure that it complies with that and is not further reduced. As an example our newish Sony TV allows 500mA per port.Attaching it to our Cube, take a look at photo 1, you will see that it draws around 135mA whilst streaming over the LAN. That is with no USB devices connected to its hub.Then I attach a 2.5" HD to its hub, see photo 2, and that drive alone will draw up to 450mA or so when in use to stream. That is just from the USB port the drive is connecting to and if it was using the LAN connection at the time then the overall power draw could be more than a USB 2 spec could allow.I appreciate then that a power port is offered on the device just for situations like I have described above. See photo 3.But why hasn't that power port been made as a std Micro USB type port, as they are far more common as a std that many of us have with so many devices needing such a 5v supply ....?It does remind me of the situation we were in prior to phone makers needing to adopt one common std for the charging of them, we needed an individual charger for each device we had...!It could have been a Micro USB port and that would have been great.I object to having to buy another 5v power supply, I can't even see one listed.So for some who need a Gigabit LAN port on their device that is compatible then it is fine, but this device is more than that, it is a USB 3 multi hub as well. Just be wary of what you are plugging into it and using the LAN at the same time without an external power supply.A pity that uGreen has made this otherwise useful device to use a non std 5v power port. As mentioned previously it would have also been useful to have those three USB ports switchable, if you have a mix of high and lower powered devices connected you could then switch them rather than having to plug and unplug each time.It might just suit our needs overall but I would suggest that you think about your own needs and be wary that you do not try and draw too much power from your USB port when connected, USB 1 and 2 only able to supply 500mA.I do hope that this review has helped you.Happy shopping.
