Will this increase internet connection speed on my older black Macbook?

It will only increase your internet signal connection so if your internet was slow because of weak signal it may help but if your deivce/internet it self is slow it will remain the same

While I've never installed one in an older MacBook, I see no reason it shouldn't work. No promises though. And that said, it won't fully take advantage of the speed of the SSD because it will be limited by the 1500mbps SATA bus in the MacBook (this SSD can perform sequential reads of 4000mbps).

No it doesn't. I returned mine because it was super slow on the Internet and many times would lose the connection and lock up. Maybe I had a lemon? Bought a Mac and it's fantastic.

By itself, no. It merely boosts signal range. You'll want to get a wifi card or USB wifi stick to plug into a USB port if you don't have built in wireless internet.

Ya it will help the speed but only do much, the true speed will depend on your location and the bandwidth they offer in your location. Like I am in a really small town right now and it's garbage speed

Mine works just fine. Call them with the mac address and see. It's the same one that I had from Comcast. There are new and faster ones now.

No. This a thunderbolt connection which is used on new macs. You should probably look for a lightning connector.

Hi there, I do not think so, Apple has used a certain type of connector, look up OWC ssd upgrades they should have info on Mac ssd upgrades

See answer from V. Caarlson. I think the computer needs to be reasonably up to date and fast. I use a new Macbook and it works well.

Absolutely. The new model works with only a connection to your router - You don't have to leave your computer on all the time. And, many of the other features make it well worth the upgrade.

I do not have problems with speed... but since OSX Mavericks it does not work anymore and diamond is not providing driver that works. Has worked very well with previous version of OSX

On my Mac the latency is imperceptible....(it's very very low !!!!) but I think you must consider the model of your mac. I have a MacBook pro 13" 2,9 GHz Intel Core i7 8 GB Ram 1600 MHz DDR3, OS X version 10.10.2. Hoping to have helped you, I wish you a good buy.

There are adapters for Ethernet via Thunderbolt or USB on your MacBook. Around $30

Yes, I occasionally connect mine to my Macbook and it works fine. Speeds with 3.0 are great.

My son uses it for the i racing game on the internet but the speed is not fast enough on the mac and uses my windows based computer. Not real sure if i can answer your question totally,but for some reason he does not use the i mac.

This was purchased as a gift, so I have no first-hand knowledge of it's utility. My daughter used it in college and I intended it for her to be able to use it for internet connectivity with a first-generation MacBook Air. She never indicated to me if it worked or even if she used it, but I'm pretty sure it would have functioned. Comments I've looked at here on Amazon include some from MacBook Air users who were satisfied. One did note that it needs an OS version later than "Leopard" to run properly. Good luck! ;)

I'm not really proficient with this network wireless stuff. My configuration is a Macbook with 802.11a,b,g,n and and Air Express which works like your router so I suspect it is a fit, but I think I looked it up on the Asus site to confirm it myself. Bad habit not to write down notes on these system upgrades.
