Just turn it off and on again! - I’ve set myself a challenge to improve my home network speeds and give it all a bit of an update. I have a home server set up and decided to hardwire it in a little. I have my trusty MacMini M1 set up as the server and my MacBook is docked via Caldigit TS4, which had a 2.5Gb Ethernet port already. I have purchased Anker on many an occasion and after checking the speed of the wired network connection and data transfer to the server at around 105mbs from my MacBook, I decided that a dongle into my MacMini was a simple upgrade. So a quick search and for the cost, a brand I had confidence in for a relatively low cost seemed a no brainer. Delivered the next day, plugged it into the MacMini thunderbolt 3 port, Ethernet cable plugged in, lights working, fed into my 2.5Gb port of my network switch…. Checked the system details, did not identify the dongle! Did a data transfer speed check, no change! Used my extensive IT knowledge, switched the MacMini off and on again, and the dongle was connected. Did another data speed check and was getting transfer speed to the server from the remote to a SATA HDD at around 210, which has doubled the speed, so I’m happy with that, and data speed to SSD is a lot quicker than previously. The Anker did as was expected, good build quality, solid connection into ports and after a reboot, worked with minimal set up and provided a doubling of speed, which is what I wanted, so I would recommend this if you are in the market to increase network speed and I can confirm, works great on my MacMini M1, just reboot if not recognised! Review: Fast, Reliable, and Super Convenient - I’ve been using the Anker PowerExpand USB-C to 2.5 Gbps Ethernet Adapter for a few weeks now, and it’s been flawless. The speed boost from my regular Gigabit Ethernet is noticeable, especially for large file transfers and streaming high-res content without any lag. Setup was super easy—just plug and play with no driver headaches. The build quality feels solid and premium, and the compact design means it fits nicely with my laptop setup without adding bulk. I appreciate the stable, low-latency connection it provides, which makes it perfect for remote work, gaming, or any situation where Wi-Fi just doesn’t cut it. If you need a fast, reliable Ethernet adapter that supports 2.5 Gbps speeds, this Anker model is a great choice. Highly recommended. ## Features - The Anker Advantage: Join the 55 million+ powered by our leading technology. - High-Speed Internet: Connect to the internet via your USB-C device and enjoy high-speed, reliable internet up to 2.5 Gbps. - Plug and Play: Just connect your Ethernet cable to the adapter and plug the adapter into your laptop for an instant connection. - Lightweight and Compact: The space-saving and portable design measures just over half an inch thick and weighs about the same as a AA battery. - What You Get: PowerExpand USB-C to 2.5 Gbps Ethernet Adapter, welcome guide, 18-month worry-free warranty, and friendly customer service. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B097N5WJY9 | | Best Sellers Rank | 30,926 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 672 in USB to USB Adapters | | Brand Name | Anker | | Color | Gray | | Compatible Devices | Laptop | | Compatible Operating System Family | Windows | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (1,245) | | Data Link Protocol | Ethernet | | Data Transfer Rate | 2.5 Gigabits Per Second | | Hardware Interface | Ethernet, USB | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 6L x 2.5W x 1.4H centimetres | | Item Weight | 27 g | | Manufacturer | Anker | | Manufacturer Part Number | A83160A1 | | Model Number | A83160A1 | | Product Warranty | 18-month | | UPC | 194644075699 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Anker - **Colour:** Gray - **Compatible Operating System Family:** Windows - **Compatible devices:** Laptop - **Data link protocol:** Ethernet - **Data transfer rate:** 2.5 Gigabits Per Second - **Hardware interface:** Ethernet, USB - **Item weight:** 27 g - **Product dimensions:** 6L x 2.5W x 1.4H centimetres - **UPC:** 194644075699 ## Images ![USB-C to Ethernet - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51dnw216OlL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this product using the realtek rtl8156 chipset, or the rtl8156b chipset (note the letter b at the end)?** A: It's rtl8156. **Q: has anyone used this with an ipad pro with type c?** A: I have not used it on an iPad but I have used it on my Android phone that has a USB-C and it works.

Highly recommended. ### ⭐ Poor compatibility *by S***E on 24 March 2025* Anker stuff is usually great but this is a dud. It refuses to negotiate a speed with my unifi kit on windows or linux. The only way I can get it to work is fixing it to 1gb speeds on the switch side. I was able to connect at 2.5gb speeds with a SFP+ transceiver on the switch side but even then it disconnected occasionally. I bought a Sabrent dongle to replace it and it's absolutely solid with all of my kit, and not that much more expensive. ## Frequently Bought Together - Anker USB C to Ethernet Adapter,USB Type-C to 2.5 Gbps Ethernet LAN Network Adapter ,Aluminum Portable,for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air 2018 and Later, iPad Pro 2018 and Later, XPS - Anker USB C Adapter (2 Pack),High-Speed Data Transfer, USB-C to USB 3.0 Female Adapter for MacBook Pro 2020, iPad Pro 2020, Samsung Notebook 9, Dell XPS and More Type C Devices - Anker USB C to HDMI Adapter (4K@60Hz), 310 USB-C Adapter (4K HDMI), for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Pixelbook, XPS, and More (Compatible with Thunderbolt 3 ports) --- ## 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.tw/products/360434415-usb-c-to-ethernet](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/360434415-usb-c-to-ethernet) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
