Simple, easy, works
Came in, plugged it in along with the Ethernet, pretty self explanatory.

Worked well for Google Chromecast
My Google Chromecast was experiencing issues with bandwidth on my home wifi. Installed this adapter to hardline the Chromecast to my router. Installed easily and have had a perfect picture since.

Disrupts Remote Control
Oddly, when this device is placed in-line with the Chromecast, the ability to turn off my television with the Diectv remote no longer works. Need to gotothe original Sony Remote. It will be a non-issue once I cut the cable cord.

Using it for Android phone Ethernet hotspot
So far working well. Using it to connect an Android phone into a Netgear LTE modem. I use a sim in the modem to operate a few IoT devices in a second home, but use my phone hotspot for primary bandwidth when I’m there. Modem goes into a separate WiFi router with better range and options than the simple phone WiFi.I was using a GL iL.Net small router to bridge my phone WiFi hotspot into the modem. That setup worked, but I got this USB-C to Ethernet adapter to get a simpler setup.Key, specific feature for choosing this model is that it allows me to charge my phone and use the Ethernet hotspot.Anyway, I also tried this adapter in my Windows laptop and no issues there (i.e. no difference than my USB3 Type A to Ethernet adapter).

Works both ways.
This USB-C to RJ45 adapter works better than I was expecting. It both allows me to plug a device without an RJ45 port directly into an ethernet to get a wired connection and lets me wired share internet from my phone to another device while charging my phone.

Wired Chromecast with Google TV
Got a Chromecast with Google TV and this USB-C Ethernet adapter to go along with. From first power on I was wired and all went smooth. Almost immediately, though, I experienced Ethernet traffic randomly stopping requiring a power cycle of the Cable Matters USB-C adapter (and as a result the CwGTV) to restore connectivity as other reviewers have mentioned.After some playing around to get familiar with the CwGTV I did a factory reset and immediately afterwards I had no wired Ethernet connection… This time I connected to and setup over my 5 GHz WiFi AP and after completing such I power cycled and since doing so I’ve never had the Ethernet stop working.I’m guessing since the primary concept of the Chromecast with Google TV is to use such via WiFi that the network configuration isn’t properly setup if out of the gate you are using a network solution like this. Perhaps it’d be a different story if I was using Google’s USB-C adapter but who wants 10/100 in 2022?

Easy install and now I have 2.5gb on my Dell gaming PC
I connected this to the front USB C port on my Dell 5675 gaming computer and it recognized it to 2.5gb on my TrueNas Scale install. So very easy install the Ethernet Adapter, it just worked first time.

Works great even with included power adapter (Power delivery port is INPUT)
So this arrived and I was frustrated, because I wanted to plug my Chromecast into the power delivery port, but I did not have a usbC-usbC cable, so I ordered one. That arrived, adn it still did not work lol because I did not have a usb c power adapter.I should have known the PD port is for incoming power (power delivery, i.e. “PD” is a proper noun denoting capacity/compatibility, not a generic description of the port), but I wasn’t really thinking, I had other projects going on. Anyway to simplify: this dongle is all you need: plug your existing power adapter into the female “PD” and plug the dongle’s USB-C male into the Chromecast itself.Others have said you need a more powerful power brick, but that was not my experience. So maybe a higher-speed ethernet connection would suck up more power. But you can use other bricks you have lying around, you don’t need a USB-C power adapter!

Está a un increÃble precio siendo que en otros sitios llegaba a costar el doble o triple del producto, es súper fácil de instalar y mi Chromecast de 4ta generación lo detectó rápidamente, muy recomendable.

Zakup zrobiony konkretnie pod Google Chromecast 4, by móc podÅÄ czyÄ go kablowo tam gdzie nie bÄdzie zasiÄgu WiFi (zabieram go ze sobÄ na dÅuższe wyjazdy i różnie z tym bywa). Ten adapter dziaÅa z Chromecastem bez najmniejszego problemu (po podÅÄ czeniu, trzeba tylko czasem go zrestartowaÄ by wykryÅ kartÄ sieciowÄ ). Do zasilenia caÅego kompletu, wystarczy oryginalna Åadowarka od Chromecasta. Nie potrzeba wiÄcej mocy.

The wifi/ethernet was very limited on the Chromecast 4k, i was getting 28mbps max on both wifi and ethernet, just wasn’t enough to stream 4k movies from my Nas through the Chromecast, constant buffering made it impossible to watch content.After a little online research came across this Cable Matters usb c to ethernet adaptor, seem to tick all the boxes so ordered one.It’s a no brainer, now getting around 300mbps throughput and everything is running smoothly, no more buffering, just buy one if you are having the same issues you will not regret it.5/5
