So im looking around for USB ethernet adapters and a came accross this lenovo thinkpad one.

Will this work on all pc's with a windows OS.

For £14.35 its not  bad price compared to one from startech.

Is there any other versions that anyone can recommend?

Do you really expect me to know things? 


$25.67/$~2500 (Price changes hourly..) I'm 1/100th of the way there!

In order to work on every device it has to be totally driverless.

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VSTDFG/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - this will work on pretty much anything, but its USB 2.0 Gigabit ethernet, which means it doesn't go at full gig speeds.

 

I also own this one:

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BBD7NFU/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - not driverless and does not work on android devices and etc. But it will work on windows, linux and etc.

I've bought some unbranded ones from chinese eBay sellers (brand new in package). Looks like a knockoff Belkin or something. Anyway it worked great and didn't require any specific drivers (Though it did come with a Driver CD for Windows XP and later versions in case it doesn't automatically install).

For Sale: Meraki Bundle
