    Great Alternative Console Device

    This item worked perfectly for me! I needed to setup a console for an IBM iSeries Power 6. The days of twinax for these machines are long gone, but I did not want to keep changing the ethernet adapter in my PC to accommodate a fixed IP address on the iSeries that I was attempting to connect to, so I bought this and switched to it when I wanted to connect to the console on the iSeries. I now have TCPIP set up on the iSeries and can use iAccess for Windows, but if I ever need to log into a console session, this will be my connection device.

    I bought two of these, to build a DIY multi-ISP load balance/failover internet gateway for my home LAN. Using an OpenWrt (22.0.3) image for the RasPi 4. The kernel recognized the USB dongle (Realtek). I was able to configure the 2 LAN ports from these dongles to connect with (a) Cox cable and (b) T Mobile 5G home internet service providers. Load balancing/failover and auto-recovery work like a charm for my internet usage.
