Top Rated Usb 3.0 Hub For Mac 2018

Currently, the best usb hub is the Anker B14A. Wiki researchers have been writing reviews of the latest usb 3.0 hubs since 2015.

The Belkin USB 3.0 3-Port Hub with Gigabit Ethernet Adapter lets you easily add multiple peripherals via a single USB 3.0 port on your MacBook. The hub's three USB 3.0 ports accommodate portable hard drives, flash drives, and printers—and the RJ-45 LAN port provides up to 1 Gb/s wired Internet access. Once installed, the USB 3.0 hub and Gigabit Ethernet can work simultaneously on Mac OS and Windows devices via one SuperSpeed USB 3.0 cable. This stylish, compact device doesn't require an external power supply, so it fits neatly on office tables or in your bag on business trips. No Ethernet for MAC Sierra The 3 USB 3.0 ports work quite well but the Ethernet does not work even after downloading old driver.

Why is Apple Store selling this if Belkin won't keep it current?

I always thought Belkin products were tops but if there is no new driver, this will be my last Belkin.

Was able to make this work under Sierra (v10.12.6) I also bought this from Apple and found that the Ethernet function did not smoothly work (i.e., 'plug and play') under Sierra OS. However, the Belkin driver (fr I also bought this from Apple and found that the Ethernet function did not smoothly work (i.e., 'plug and play') under Sierra OS. However, the Belkin driver (from the URL listed on the packing box) seems both out of date ( from 2015) and does not get properly registered under Sierra (at least in terms of having the Belkin adapter show up under the 'Network' page on System Preferences). But after Googling a bit, I discovered there is in fact an updated Mac driver made available by the apparent Taiwanese hardware (ASIX) maker of the chip in the Belkin gizmo. Go to the following site: www.asix.com.tw/products.php?op=pItemdetail&PItemID=131;71;112 Under the driver list, look at the line showing: Apple Mac OS X 10.9 and above Drivers Installer V2.11.0 2018-05-15 For Apple x86, 32-bit/64-bit platforms 1.1 MB I downloaded the ZIP file and installed the contained driver (there are also instructions from the 2015 era).

Then after restarting the driver showed up in the Network page after attaching an Ethernet cable between the Powerbook and a MacMini. I was then able to transfer files via the Finder (having set up the appropriate sharing permissions) from a Mac Mini with Ethernet capability. So, in a more perfect world, Belkin would update their Web site to show this updated driver. Apple should also do a better job at supporting such a product sold from their Web Site.

Great, but difficult to setup This product is very good, once the mac can use it. Like many other people have stated the mac does not detect the hub, until I ran some experiments.

I found that you need perform 2 undocumented steps in order for the mac to use the hub correctly: 1) Disable SIP within the mac (steps can be researched online) and the reason is because the driver is unsigned and Mac OS requires properly signed drivers to be loaded. [Be advised this will decrease the security on your mac, and be aware of the functionality that is being modified!] 2) You need to plugin the hub without an ethernet cable first to allow detection, then plug-in the ethernet cable. Does office for mac home and student 2016 require a subscription box. Once there is a record within the network settings, then you can plug-in the hub with the ethernet cable every time.

I wanted to buy this product for an ethernet connection.
