Just plug in your adapter, wait a moment while the driver is set up, then access the network. If you have any problems with this, please contact us at support@plugable.com.

Click one of the buttons below to see drivers for that platform.

Windows

If you wish to pre-install drivers before your adapter arrives, just download and run the utility from the link below:

After downloading, simply double-click on the .exe file to begin installation. You will receive a confirmation that the process has begun, and another upon successful completion- this should take less than a minute on most systems.

Note: ARM-based Windows 8/8.1 tablets such as the Microsoft Surface RT do not have drivers for the ASIX 88179 built in. ASIX does not provide a Surface RT compatible driver for installation.

Windows PC’s with internet access should automatically download and install drivers from Windows Update.

Ethernet

A driver CD-ROM* is also provided in the packaging with the product. *Please note that Windows 8/8.1 driver is not loaded on the CD, however it can be downloaded from the link above.

For macOS 10.6 through 10.14.x

To install the ASIX 88179 driver on macOS 10.6 through 10.14.x ONLY, download the driver from the link below:

  • macOS Universal Binary Driver (DMG file format)
  • For macOS 10.6-10.14.x
  • Note: macOS 10.13-10.14.x requires users to manually approve 3rd party extensions (drivers). Step-by-step instructions for doing so can be found in our blog post here
For macOS 10.15 Catalina and newer only:

As of macOS 10.15 Catalina, we no longer officially support ASIX USB Ethernet adapters in macOS due to a cumbersome installation process that does not meet our expectations, but, ultimately, is functional for most customers. These changes are a result of Apple’s implementation of DriverKit and changed requirements for drivers and installation in 10.15. For more information, please find our blog post here.

  • macOS Universal Binary Driver (DMG file format)
  • For macOS 10.15 and newer only
  • Instructions: We have written detailed installation instructions for assistance in this process due to the currently less user-friendly installation experience. The instructions can found in our blog post here
