There are more and more computers of any type that do not include an Ethernet port. This allows you to connect to the Internet using cable and is sometimes an excellent solution when wireless options are not working properly. We show USB Hub that solve this lack and that has a fairly adjusted price.
These accessories are an excellent solution since they very easily add a good number of additional connections, which is always highly sought after by users. In addition, and thanks to current advances, the installation processes are quite simple. The reason is that all models are Plug & Play , so there is no need to install any drivers in operating systems (such as macOS and Windows).
Basic options of these USB Hubs
The first thing to keep in mind is that, ideally, the connection port included in the accessory you buy is USB type C. This allows a stability in the transfer of data superior to what traditional connections offer. This which seems to be an inconvenience is not so much, since computers that do not include an Ethernet port, generally always include a USB type C port.
When it comes to connectivity, there are things that are basic that the USB Hub that is purchased must offer. To start with, you should at least include an additional USB Type-C port (but if there are two, all the better). Besides, it is also quite positive that there are type A connections , since in this way a good gain is achieved in possibilities of accessories that can be used, such as those that already have a while. This that we comment is basic so that an accessory is obtained that is a good solution for all kinds of needs.
Other things that are recommended is that the device includes other connection options, since in this way it will be a much more decisive product. Something that we consider basic is the existence of a card reader for the use of the microSD of smartphones, for example. In addition, it is positive that HDMI video output is included to, in this way, add the possibility of connecting the computer in which it is used to monitors or Smart TVs (this is especially important for laptops).
A couple of additional details that are important
The first is the one that has to do with dimensions. It is obvious that the smaller the device, the better, but the truth is that to include all the connections indicated above, this is complicated. A reference could be the following: 14 x 7 x 2 centimeters . In this way, it does not bother the desk and it does not become a nuisance in the backpack with which the laptop is protected.
Finally, it should be noted that the included USB type C connection cable is quite long so that the accessory should not be placed excessively close to the computer as this can be annoying. This, for usability is more important than it seems.
Shopping we recommend
Next, we leave a list in which you can find purchase options that are recommended and that, in addition, are not especially expensive and that allow you to add an Ethernet port through a USB Hub to connect to the Internet.
Hub VEMONT
It is one of the options that have smaller dimensions and, therefore, it is one of the possibilities that best fits to carry them in the backpack. It does not lack a Gigabit Ethernet port and it also has an HDMI port that supports 4K quality images. Very complete.
TSUPY Hub
Of all the USB Hubs that we have chosen, this is possibly the most striking of them all. With a fabric element in the upper area, clamoring you draws attention. When it comes to connectivity, this model does not lack anything since it even has a VGA port.
Hub dodocool
This accessory does not lack anything that has, among other things, two USB Type-C ports, fingerprint reader and even HDMI compatible with 4K. The Ethernet adapter inside it is Gigabit, so it ensures high data transfer.
Hub VAVA
Being a model that has a fairly small thickness, of only 1.2 centimeters, it is transported quite easily in the pockets of the backpack. As a curiosity, it includes a complete card reader and is one of the options that has a fairly long USB Type-C cable that makes it quite easy to use.
Hub Hotott
It is a seven-in-one model, as it includes everything that a USB Hub may need. An example is that the HDMI output supports high-quality images and the Ethernet port that allows high data transfer. Nor does it lack a useful and complete memory card reader.
Hub Gibot
Another of the models that has dimensions that are very small and that also includes a protector against fingerprints so that marks do not remain constantly. Among the ports that attract attention beyond the Ethernet, highlights the inclusion of HDMI and a USB type A pair.
Hub AUKEY
A very complete accessory that has everything you may need and with excellent quality, since its USB type C port allows direct recharging of the computer with a power of 100 W. It includes a large number of USB type A ports, since it has no less than four.
Hub FLYLAND
This USB Hub does not lack anything, which has a design that makes it completely different from the rest of the models we have chosen. Very interesting that it includes two video outputs, one HDMI compatible with 4K and the other VGA. A good purchase option.
Hub Bnoeo
The truth is that this is a good possibility since it even has a headphone jack. And, this is interesting since there are some laptops that no longer have it … as with smartphones. Its finish is quite interesting and the Ethernet port is Gigabit.
Hub XDDIAS
It responds to all kinds of needs, since this model is quite attractive and lacks absolutely nothing in terms of connectivity (such as three USB Type A ports). It is an economical model that works perfectly in all kinds of situations.
