Item worked wonderful!

Hooked this baby up to the cable and rerouted to USB Port. Bingo, instant connection

This is a great product at an affordable price. I's a great source when there is no other option available.

it works great!!no disconnecting so far make sure you use 2.0 usb port....

Performs flawlessly in Linux OS (Tested with Slackware 12.2 and Xandros)

I found a cheaper product, but don't get me wrong; the quality of this one is well worth it.

Basically just plug and play worked great for my wii, and my computer.

Pros: Lightweight, case is sturdy.
Works on Linux, Mac OS X (Snow Leopard), haven't tested it on Windows. Linux detects it as an "ASIX AX88772 USB 2.0 Ethernet" and used the usbnet and asix kernel modules.Cons: Rattles a bit when shaken, making it feel a tad cheap.
Case could be smaller - this thing is WAY bulkier than the tiny USB-to-ethernet dongle Apple makes for MacBook Air.
Not gigabit.
Requires a proprietary driver on Mac and Windows. I was sort of expecting it to detect as a generic USB ethernet gadget or something of the sort.Lightweight, case is sturdy.

Pros: It works great in Linux; plugged it in, installed and it was picked right up. I used this to convert an old laptop into a firewall running Smoothwall, no problems.Cons: NoneIt works great in Linux; plugged it in, installed and it was picked right up. I used this to convert an old laptop into a firewall running Smoothwall, no problems. None Of course it's going to be a little slow - it's USB, it won't be gigabit networking. I didn't need it to be any faster than my 5mbit internet anyway, so for my purposes it worked wonderfully.
