WARRKY USB to Ethernet Adapter (Model WARRKY-DT-AE03) Instruction Manual

1. Introduction

The WARRKY USB to Ethernet Adapter provides a reliable wired network connection for devices lacking an Ethernet port or experiencing unstable wireless connectivity. This 2-in-1 adapter features both USB-A and USB-C connectors, offering broad compatibility with various devices. It supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (1Gbps), ensuring a stable and fast internet experience.

2. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to connect your WARRKY USB to Ethernet Adapter:

1. Identify the correct connector: The adapter features a versatile 2-in-1 design. The USB-C connector is integrated into the USB-A connector. Gently pull the USB-C connector out from the USB-A housing if your device requires a USB-C connection. If your device uses USB-A, keep the USB-C connector nested within the USB-A housing.
2. Connect the adapter to your device: Insert the appropriate USB-A or USB-C end of the adapter into an available port on your computer, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable: Plug a standard RJ45 Ethernet cable (Category 6 or higher recommended for 1Gbps speeds) into the RJ45 port on the adapter. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your router, modem, or network switch.
4. Verify connection: Most modern operating systems (Windows 11/10/8.1/8, macOS, Chrome OS, Linux) support plug-and-play functionality, meaning no additional drivers are required. For older operating systems like Windows 7/XP/Vista, a driver may be necessary. Once connected, your device should automatically detect the wired network connection.
