Moshi USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor

I just bought a New Macbook Pro late 2014 , I saw the Moshi USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor , My internet speed is up to 195 Mbps . Is it good to buy it or the 2.0 where the deference is only $5.00 but forget about money wise sometimes i might use the ethernet RJ45 to connect when Wi-Fi is slow since my other Macbook Pro was slow and i read a lot to do with Yosemite ? What can someone tell me about it ? Is it a good product i read 3 reviews and one was good and the other two where so so.

Did not get any replays but already bought it will get it tomorrow March the 11th where it is my Birthday .

  • Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor and iPad 4

    Is there a way to connect the Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor to an iPad 4?

    I've never seen any ethernet adapter for the iPad. I carry an Airport Express (any portable router would do, though) if I think I'm going to be in a situation where the only internet access is going to be wired. This happens frequently when I travel in Japan.

  • Can the Gigabit Ethernet LAN Port be used with a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet adaptor and then to a Thunderbolt Hard Drive as a back up drive?

    Can the Gigabit Ethernet LAN Port be used with a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet adaptor and then to a Thunderbolt Hard Drive as a back up drive?

    If you use ethernet to connect the two AirPort Extremes together, you'll have Gigabit speeds available at all of the ethernet ports on both routers.
    If you connect the second AirPort Extreme using wireless only and configure the Extreme to "extend a wireless network", then the maximum speeds that the second router can attain will be limited to the capability of the wireless connection. So, if you connect at normal "n" wireless speeds of say 130 Mbps, that will be the maximum speed available at the ethernet ports on the second AirPort Extreme.
    I think you can easily see the difference between Gigabit ethernet, which is 1000 Mbps compared to "n" wireless at 130 Mbps. Even if you can manage to connect at 5 GHz speeds for wireless, the max speed will be in the 300 Mbps range, more than 3 times slower than Gigabit ethernet. Normal "n" speeds will be about 7 times slower than ethernet.
    For streaming high definition video and other demanding sources, you'll need as much bandwidth (speed) as you can get. Ethernet is always the best choice if you can possibly use it. And...there's no wireless interference on an ethernet connection.

  • Mac Mini Server Link aggregation - Thunderbolt or USB 3 gigabit ethernet adaptors

    I am setting up a late 2012 Mac Mini as a file server with Server 2.2. It has a Promise Pegasus R4 RAID and LaCie 4TB drives daisy chained via the Thunderbolt connection. 4 users on MacPro's will connect to the server to access these hard drives via gigabit ethernet.
    I imagine the gigabit ethernet will be the bottleneck, so I'm now looking at link aggregation. Not a problem on the MacPro's but the Mac Mini will require an adaptor to get a second gigabit port. From reading this forum I understand the Apple Thunderbolt to Gigabit adaptor will work, but I'm concerned that it will need to be fitted 3rd in line after the R4 and LaCie drives. The 10Gbps bandwidth Thunderbolt has, may cause another bottleneck with all three working off the same port?
    An option would be to use one of the USB 3 ports with this adaptor http://www.ebuyer.com/412005-startec...edium=products
    I believe it work with OSX, but I have no speed information or if OSX link aggregation will work using it.
    Any thoughts on the above would be appreciated and recommendations on a suitable Network Switch with LACP support welcome.

    At present Mountain Lion Server cannot use a LACP bond, in my experience only of course. http://www.small-tree.com/kb_results.asp?ID=59 describes LACP/Bonds do not show up in Server Admin GUI on Mountain Lion
    anyone know how to do it? or the location and the name of the plist file to configure the network interface in ML server?

  • My thunderbolt gigabit ethernet adaptor does not work on hotel ethernet connections, My thunderbolt gigabit ethernet adaptor does not work on hotel ethernet connections

    I recently purchased a thunderbolt ethernet adaptor and I realised that when I am out of town (I travel alot) the adpator does not work with the hotel etherenet network regardless of whatever hotel I am staying at. Does anybody else have this issue? is there a software or update I need to download? help!

    maybe it just takes a lot longer to acquire an IP address at the hotels vs your home, where the network is already known
    next time, connect it and then open network under system preferences, you'll be able to see the adapter's progress in acquiring an IP address

  • Combo USB 2.0 + Gigabit Ethernet PCI Card?

    I have been looking feverishly for a manufacturer that makes a Mac-compatible PCI Card that has both USB 2.0 and Gigabit Ethernet on the same card. So far I have not been able to find anything. I am wondering if anyone knows of one that will be compatible with a B&W Powermac with a gig of RAM and a Sonnet G4 500Mhz processor.
    On a side note, I know this Mac has limitations pertaining to Hard Drive size and I am curious: If I have a slave drive enabled, is my total combined usable size the 128 limit or can I have 2 120 gig Hard drives? And what is the highest speed drive recommended for the B&W's slow bus?
    Kind of a lot of questions... Thanks so much in advance!!!!
    -Kurt

    I don't know of a Mac-compatible combo card like that. Because of the issues with USB 2.0 cards in Macs, you'll have better compatibility installing one that has an NEC controller chip. This stipulation would narrow the field of recommended combo cards even further, if there were any from which to choose. As for hard drive capacity, the 128 GB limitation applies to each drive - not the sum of two drives, configured as master and slave. If your B&W G3 has a Rev. 1 motherboard, the onboard IDE controller doesn't support master/slave configurations (see "New Features" Section 3 - "Revised IDE Controller Chip" on this page). Depending on the amount of money you wish to invest in your B&W, this Acard AEC-6280M ATA-133 controller card would enable you to take advantage of reasonably-priced, larger capacity drives. About six months ago, I bought a pair of sale-priced Seagate 120 GB drives for $59.99 USD each, when that capacity was being phased out by the retailer. Now, you can often find larger capacity drives for less than that. As for bus speed, an ATA-100 or ATA-133 drive is backward-compatible and will run on the slower, onboard IDE bus in the B&W. The spindle speed for most drives is 7200 RPM, which provides a slight improvement over the slower 5400 RPM drives.

  • Thunderbolt to Gigabit ethernet does not work anymore.

    I had purchased a Thunderbolt to Gigabit ethernet a few months back and has been working fine. Recently in my Network Preference it is not recognized anymore. I removed it hoping it would pickup and nothing. I switched ports and nothing. I tried my adapter on another MacBook Pro and it worked fine. I tried a new TB to Gigabit ethernet adapter and still did not work. Thinking something maybe wrong with my ports I tried a Thunderbolt to DVI adapter and works fine.

    This is a late reply, but I had this same question and found the answer here:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/70931/how-to-force-thunderbolt-ethernet -connection-when-switching-networks-without-res
    To me, it was a network reconfiguration problem, I simply went to System Preferences --> Network --> Assist Me, had it reconfigure my connections, and now my Thunderbolt-to-Gigabit-Ethernet adaptor works fine.

  • Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adaptor Issue

    Hello,
    These are the specs for the machine:
    Macbook Air
    Mac OS X 10.7.5
    Processor 1.7 GHz Intel Core i5
    4GB 1333 MHz DDR2
    13-inch, Mid-2011
    Recently, the owner of the machine bought a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor, however, upon plugging it in, nothing happens. They have tried it with several different ethernet cables, different networks, and even exchanged the adaptor in case of that being the problem. The adaptor is recognized in System Information when it's plugged in, and Thunderbolt Ethernet is now an option under Network in System Preferences, but it still says not connected even when the ethernet cable is plugged in. Assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    What finally worked for me was noticing that "Bluetooth PAN" was connected and letting me browse, when I wasn't actually connected to a Bluetooth PAN device! Turns out my Mac was confused, calling the connection Bluetooth PAN when it was actually the Display Ethernet.
    I disconnected the display, deleted Display Ethermet, Display FireWire, and Bluetooth PAN. Apply, the plugged the display back in. Then added back the Display Ethernet and Apply. Presto, works fine now.

  • Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adaptor makes fans go crazy

    I have a late 2012 Retina Macbook Pro.
    Just bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adaptor.
    Works like a charm, except that every time im downloading large files or uploading large files... the fans on the macbook start spinning at the highest speed.
    anyone else share the same problem?

    There are may glitches with the Retina model MBPs. you have found one of them, if not more. It has to do with the way Apple has set the sleep mode system in the firmware and or OS.
    There is a long thread on this type of Deep Sleep mode problem someplace on this forum.

    It is connected to a Gigabit switch wich operates perfectly (other computers on switch work in Gigabit speed)
    Any ideas?

    Kind of worked it out. I think that the port is 'mini display port' only and not Thnderbolt, doh. I now have a Mini Display port to VGA Adapter and a Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adaptor which I cannot use. Since I bought them from an Apple shop with in store support I feel miffed. Thank you for your help gmalone1.

  • Sharing one ethernet cable with two macs using a USB Ethernet Adaptor

    I have two computers running Mac OS 10.6 but only one ethernet cable in my office. One ethernet cable goes from the wall to Mac #1. I have a cisco USB Ethernet Adaptor USB300M that I like to use as OUTGOING ethernet cable from Mac #1 to plug into Mac #2. Does anybody know how this works? Simply plugging it in does not work. Thanks for any suggestions!

    If either of these computers is a Mac Pro (65 lb.) tower, all of which have two Ethernet jacks, Internet sharing is crisply supported with any additional Hardware. Cable the wall jack Ethernet to the first Ethernet port, then cable the second Ethernet port to the second Mac. Configuration is described in this article:

  • What can I migrate from my 13" MacBook (white 2007) to a new MacBook Air 13" using an ethernet cable and a USB ethernet adaptor for the MBA?

    I have, on order, a 13" MacBook Air (128Gb) and intend using Migration Assistant to transfer data from my 4 year old MacBook 13" (White) on set up.
    I have ordered an Apple USB Ethernet adaptor and have today purchased an Ethernet cable.
    I will want to transfer;
    Mail........Mailboxes, their contents and account settings. In fact the lot except the application itself.
    Safari..... Bookmarks, Cookies, Saved Passwords etc. As above
    Google Chrome.........same
    Address Book
    iCal
    iTunes
    iPhoto
    Documents. Excel, Word, Powerpoint & pdf's (a clean install of Office for Mac 2011 will take place on the MBA)
    MacBook and applications are currently up to date and I've read about disabling the energy saver to sleep option.
    Is it all that simple or am I missing something?
    Can Account Information in Mail be migrated?
    Will saved links be transferred in Safari (especially that of my ISP's customer area)? You have no idea what navigating around Orange France is like !
    Sorry if I sound a little naïve but I'm English, retired and living in France and the nearest Apple Store is a 3 hour drive away so I'm doing it all myself.
    Thanks

    Use Setup Assistant when your new Mac first starts up.  See Using Setup Assistant on Lion (it's a bit more complete).
    Unless you choose to omit things, that will set your new Mac up exactly like the old one, except for a few preferences, etc., that may be different for the different hardware.  
    If your old Mac isn't running Lion, there will be some other differences, too.  See Changes in Lion from Snow Leopard.

  • MBA, 24" Cinema Display, & USB Ethernet Adaptor

    I'm considering getting a MBA, however, I don't want to have to run it on wireless at home. Will the built in USB hub in the 24" Cinema Display run the SuperDrive and the USB Ethernet Adaptor?

    SuperDrive
    Probably not. That drive requires more power than a regular USB 2.0 port supplies and isn't compatible with other Mac models.
    USB Ethernet Adaptor
    Yes.

  • What is faster thunderbolt or usb 3.0 gigabit ethernet

    What is faster a thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter or a usb 3.0 gigabit ethernet adapter?
    Thanks

    Both Thunderbolt and USB 3.0 have bandwidths that exceed gigabit ethernet so based on theoretical numbers they should perform the same. However, different product manufacturers will write different drivers and use different hardware so unless you test specific products the question can't really be answered. Probably have to wait until magazines such as MacWorld or other Mac related websites test and compare devices.
