Review What do you get when you cross a 3Com 10BaseT Ethernet network interface with USB? In this case, it's USB-to-Ethernet perfection. The new 3Com USB Network Interface beats or equals ADS' USB-to-Ethernet adapter in all regards, displacing it on our WinList. 3Com's device provides a smaller, less-expensive and easier-to-install solution with better LED readouts and a more flexible cable arrangement.The 3Com's performance, rated using our Ganymede Chariot-based network benchmarks, equals that of the ADS device (see Reviews, March). 3Com claims its USB-to-Ethernet adapter is capable of 6Mb-per-second sustained throughput; our tests show 6Mbps to be a realistic number for most USB-to-Ethernet devices. In fact, performance is the main trade-off with these units, which are somewhat slower than typical 10Mbps 10BaseT Ethernet cards. But for routine client-access network chores, I didn't notice a performance difference.At 2.7 by 2.2 by 0.9 inches thick, the 3Com USB Network Interface is the smallest USB-to-Ethernet device we've tested, and it's the only one with a detachable two-foot USB cable-the perfect compromise between flexibility and portability. There's even an easy-to-see network-transmit activity LED. Unlike that of rival models from ADS, Entrega and Belkin, the 3Com's installation worked the way USB is supposed to work: true Plug-and-Play without a separate SETUP.EXE file. Installation went off without a hitch on several test machines.The 3Com adapter also comes with the best documentation in this product category, including a separate fold-out pamphlet with step-by-step instructions. The 3Com one-year warranty is acceptable, and the company offers unlimited lifetime telephone tech support. There's just no contest: This is the best pocket USB-to-Ethernet device you can buy. -- From Winmag® ## Features - USB makes for easy installation - Works with any PC equipped with a USB port and Windows '98 - Space-saver, requires no external power supply - Users can share peripherals, files and Internet connections - Compatible with existing LAN installations/10BASE-T ## Images ![3C19250 HomeConnect Ethernet USB Adapter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71C4MN678WL._AC_.gif) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/27216661-3c19250-homeconnect-ethernet-usb-adapter](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/27216661-3c19250-homeconnect-ethernet-usb-adapter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
