Doesn't work as advertised.
Upload speeds are maximum 50 Mbps on Windows 11. The drivers on Linux (Ubuntu) are broken and don't work. I wish I had gotten something different.

Speed under no load
So far it has good connection looks stable wish I could say the same thing for my Frontier fiber connection it's up and down and can't keep up with the traffic hope this is Frontier and not the NIC I lose a lot of speed under load playing COD

You won't be disappointed....
One has to love the no hassles that come with choosing to buy this ethernet card. Install, set your download speed & viola....with fibre you end up with an 8 gig speed up & down. Be prepared to pick your jaw up off the floor.

10 GBE NIC that works on Windows 11
The card installed easily. I just downloaded the drivers from the ASUS website. It works with no issues on Windows 11. I am able to get 10gbe speeds connected to a QNAP switch and NAS devices using Mellanox X3 cards using CAT 6 cables.

Great 10GBase-T adapter
Great entry level NIC to 10 gigabit networking. Very easy installation and setup. Asus has good support if you do come across any issues. Definitely recommend. Make sure you check compatible as well as traffic control software over 1Gb.

Zero lag. No shudders, No missed shots.

Affordable, but randomly drops the connection
The card is too good to be true. Sure, it can connect at 10GB/s, but you'll quickly find that the card will just stop working too. Then you have to reset it before you have any connectivity again. That might be almost passable for a client machine, but forget it for any machine that you want to use as some kind of server. It's unfortunate, as this card had so much p...
