Rated 5 out of 5 byYogi from Cheaply MadeOn MacBook's the USB port works with no issue, no installation of drivers needed; however to get the NIC working you have to install drivers to get network connectivity. The NIC port doesn't seem to have a clip or latch; so when network cables are plugged in they don't stay securely connected and come unplugged easily. Overall just seems like this could have been designed better than it was.

Rated 5 out of 5 byStarr from USB-C to RJ34 Gigabit Network AdapterVery simple and fast. This is truly plug and play. Plug it into your USB-C computer and you have a gigabit NIC. Don't have a USB-C port, then plug into a USB-A cable into this device.
