Problems with audio on Chromebook
On my chromebook:1. The 3.5 mm jack does not appear as an audio device2. A JSAUX usb to 3.5 mm adapter does not work when plugged into this hub, but works correctly when plugged directly into chromebook. Clearly the hub is the issue.

It gets three stars….but it’s a good three stars! Here’s what I found that may help you decide.
Built well enough that it should survive using it for what it’s made for. Have a few beers and try to shove the ethernet RJ45 connector in upside down….and the whole circuit board may pop out the other end.The 6 inch lead in cable is good for taking the strain off the connectors in the PC. They should maintain a snug fit to things plugged for a longer time when all the wiggle-in-wiggle-out wear and tear happens to the adapter instead.The device registers in the pc device manager (win-11-Pro ver 25H2) as a USB 2.0 device. It performs pretty much like a USB 2.0 device. The Gigabit Ethernet port is NOT. IT can hit a little better than 100 Megabits per second, which relates to number floating around 5 to 14 MegaBYTES throughput on a gigabit network that hits over 800 Megabits routinely. So the good news is….it works on ethernet (which a lot of these cheap things do NOT) and it performs pretty much like most of the cheap ethernet capable combo adapters in that it will get the job done, just not at gigabit speeds.The USB ports are color coded as USB 3.0 (the blue plastic in the socket), Not even close…look for 15 to 25 Megabits if you are transferring files from the pc SSD to a USB 3.0 SSD. The same SSD will hit 300Megabits transfer if it.s not going through this adapter. The good news is….it transfers went error free.The SD and TF card sockets are pretty much the same as the USB-A sockets. Don’t expect anything like true USB 3.0 standards speeds. The good news….the adapters card sockets work well enough to transfer those photos off the camera SD card.The sound output jack works with a set of headphones on the windows 11 system I tried it on. Don’t expect any boost in the audio loudness. Pretty good that, coming through the USB=C socket, it gets recognized and activated by the operating system.I didn’t try the HDMI output, but of several similar adapters I have tried….they all did the basic 1920×1080 displays with no surprises. I expect if will do the same.The PD (power delivery USB-C) socket is a throw of the dice. It may work on some computers and not at all on others. The PD standards were a moving target for a long time and probably haven’t stopped running wild through the various manufacturers jungles of technical methods. The control logic gets confused and sometimes the charging functions work…and sometimes not. Has a lot to do with how the USB-C charging port logic gets along with the power source logic (if it has any) and between the Chromebook, PC, Apple, tablet, smart phone frequently evolving variations….. it’s a try it and see thing.With so many devices showing up on the shelves with trimmed down I/O capabilities (minimum USB ports, no SD or TF type card slot, no DVD optical drive, (among a long list of other interface designs that have gone by the wayside)this adapter has a place in the gear bag that allows you to interface to the things you have come to rely on, and intend to keep using, even though the latest technology may outperform it.Having a few devices like this can get you through in a pinch. At prices typically between 10 and 20 bucks…these are great backup tools to have on hand. I keep several at hand….they are cheap and they do fail…..but getting it done a little slower, is always better than not getting it done at all.

Nice device to always carry around with any laptop
I’ve used this for a few days and can say that it works just fine. I have used the HDMI port for a monitor and a TV with no issues the USB ports all seem to be good. I could not find an SD card to test, nor do I have any analog displays to test that port. The LAN port does work which is nice as most small laptops don’t come with a RJ45 port anymore. The only issue that is kind of annoying is that Windows 11 seems to have to update the status of the adapter as a USB mass storage device for every port every time I plug it in. But that’s a Windows issue more than the device I believe.
