Wi-fi connection is comfortable, however, if you require performance without any compromise, nothing will perform better than a Gigabit Ethernet port; modern devices however often miss this important port. This docking station allows you to easily access to 10/100/1000 Mbps network. You can enjoy high speed internet access without any interruption.

No external power supply is needed. The adapter supports a wide range of operating systems from Windows and Mac OS to Linux. Ethernet network connection can also be used in the Android system. However, the support of this function must be included by the manufacturer directly in the particular Android device. You can easily check this support in Network Connection Settings → Other Networks, which must include Ethernet.

Returns FAQs

What is your returns criteria?
14 days from date of receipt, or expected date of receipt on non-tracked items.

How do I go about returning my order?
Please contact us via our contact page with your order number. We will provide you with an RMA number and return instructions, including your return deadline and whether a freepost label applies to your order.

Do I need to contact you before returning my order?
Yes, to obtain an RMA number before sending anything back.

Does my item have to include its original packaging?
Yes, to qualify for our 14 day money-back guarantee. For faulty items, we understand you may no longer have the original packaging.

Who pays for return postage?
If your item is faulty, damaged, or not as described, we cover reasonable return postage, or provide a freepost label where available. If you are returning an item for another reason (including simply changing your mind), you are responsible for return postage unless we have expressly confirmed a freepost label in your RMA email — we recommend using a tracked and insured service for items of significant value.
