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 promise only to fall short, and it is most likely just a bad driver, and there isn't a newer one that fixes it, and it's been this way for over a year.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

easy to install. Downloading and unzipping the drives were the hardest thing to do. As a replacement for the Ethernet card my computer came with. It's night and day. I already see an improvement in my game play. Zero lag. No shudders, No missed shots.
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.
