Works very well with zero w, no fuzz and easy installation.
No software needed, just mounted and could immediately SSH into a new raspbian install using the ethernet port.
Very happy :)
Would like another shipping option as the Swedish mail service is very unreliable, otherwise very happy!

Great product, makes building DIY LoRaWAN gateway a breeze!

For iC880A LoRaWAN PoE adapter for Raspberry PI

Ordered the PoE adapter for my DIY "The Things Network" LoRaWAN gateway. Installing was a breeze and everything worked as expected. I re-purposed an old power converter to power the unit and that worked just fine as well. Shipping took a few days, but that can be expected with snail mail.
Only suggested improvement is to publish info on the dimensions of the combined setup (RPi + PoE adapter + iC880A) so one can easily oder a suitable housing. Now I had to wait until the adapter was in to get the correct size.

From zero to one ;)

For Raspberry PI Zero Ethernet RJ45 and USB hub Shield

Excellent addon to upgrade a 1.3 (non wireless) I had laying around.
I tried it on a 1.2 with no luck, but this pi was already heavily modified by me, so you may get different results.
An option (or stl files) for a case would make it perfect for me.

The shipping was fast and tidy.

No documentation but I can live without it, and it doesn't really need it (maybe specify the heights of the standoffs or some sort of BOM ?)

Thank you for this item, it upgrades my pi Zero to one :)

Amazing product, works as advertised!

For Raspberry PI Zero Ethernet RJ45 and USB hub Shield

I purchased this shield for my Pi Zero W to turn it into a WiFi AP. Although the description says it doesn't use the GPIO, it wasn't clear to me that the shield connects using pressure pads, so no soldering is required. Since the shield is a USB hub that connects directly to the Pi's onboard USB interface, it's simply plug and play -- no additional drivers or setup required. Best of all, I now have a working AP from my Pi Zero W. I am also so pleased with the first one that I am ordering another.

Simple elegant solution

For Raspberry PI Zero Ethernet RJ45 and USB hub Shield

The simple part was from my perspective, easy to install and worked right off, no fussing around. Now I am off to find a case.
I have to say this was my first experience with a pressure connection, so this might not work well in a tough environment, but it works great for my needs.
