Then finally when a hole is poked in your argument, you use smarmy comments to cover your exit. I scrolled up and re-read the thread to see if I had misread your responses - that you actually stated definitive facts yourself - but no not even a model number of the product you owned/used that had issues. I witness people do exactly what you just did - give baseless opinion without any research, facts or statistics to back it up. I work in IT and support clients who have similar issues as the individual who started this thread. The point is that there are alternatives to the Apple Adapter that nothing other than the apple logo and better industrial design the Belkin adapter. Apple is known to limit support to older equipement so this is a more plausible possibility. Using your logic Apple will probably drop it's support for it's own adapter when the new Macbook Air/Pros come out with USB 3.0 and Apple releases a 3.0 to Gigabit adapter.

Since I may not have tested this device with older versions of Mac OS - Please read the list of 4-5 star reviews (on ) that other Apple users have given the device using older versions of the OS = Historical data. I see people giving "advice" on these forums based totally on untested theory and opinion - When someone walks up and pokes a hole through it they become defensive.

I bought mine from Microcenter locally for a little cheaper than this:Ĭlick to expand. I would recommend returning the Monoprice adapter and purchasing the Belkin one.

I don't have any special drivers - you just plug and it works. The Belkin adapter is not as pretty as the Apple adapter - The blue LEDs can be used as a flash light they are so bright, but it does a better job. Interesting to note - I have read posts that state there will be issues with Gigabit (1000 mbps) over USB 2.0 (480 mbps) - I noticed none. So there you have it - I don't expect to get Gigabit speed 125 Mbps (1000 mbps), but getting nearly twice the write speed makes backing up and restoring a lot faster. I went to Micro Center and purchased a Belkin Gigabit USB 2.0 Network Adapter.Ĩ02.11 N Wireless to my Time Capsule (1st gen)Īpple USB "Fast" Ethernet adapter to Time Capsule (1st gen)īelkin "Gigabit" USB 2.0 Network Adapter to Time Capsule (1st gen) I guess no one has tried this little comparison so what the ****, I might as well and post my results. I tried to find more information about the Presto unit but their website is horrible - No information about their own product aside from a press release and a pretty picture. I did my own testing because no one had any experience: I wanted to take advantage of the 480mbps of USB2 which is theoretically 4.8x the speed of Apple's 100mbps. So here is my first hand experience that I posted on Apple's Support forum: Please list first hand experience if you're gonna be helpful. Love all the technical advice given without any first hand experience.
