My onboard network quit working. Used a x4 slot and it works perfect. Now I have 2 ports which my Synology uses. Easy setup and fast.

I purchased this NIC to bypass my motherboard’s integrated Realtek controller that was forcing my computer to be limited to 100mb/s network speeds. This NIC was very easy to install, and I was immediately able to see an improvement in speed as it auto negotiated true gigabit speeds with my switch. My ping dropped from 7 to 1ms, and streaming videos no longer freeze temporarily. Delivery was fast, and the contents were well protected. A great value for the money for the performance of this NIC.

DIED after two weeks.During its brief life it worked great.Guess I'll be spending a little extra money on something better.We had a lightning storm. I checked my computer devices to see if anything was damaged. Everything runs through an APC ups circuit protector. Everything is fine, however now the Network Adapter is working. Two weeks so far. I'll let you know if that changes. Spooky.

I've installed and uninstalled Intel Ethernet Adapter drivers v26.4 and v29.2 to no avail. I've even installed the Intel PROset software and couldn't detect the NIC. Item was DOA.It's my fault ultimately for not returning it within the original return period because I didn't test it initially (bought item originally for somebody who didn't need it anymore basically), but I wasn't expecting a non-working item either. I'm also not the only one who's experienced this based on some past reviews. This is my warning to everybody else now.

I tossed this NIC into an older Dell and built a pfSense (FreeBSD fork) firewall (IDS/IPS, domain blocking). This NIC functions well for this task and it was inexpensive to boot! It's a SFF Dell that found new life as the best firewall my SB client has ever owned. It's cheap, compatible and functions well.Pros: price, functionality, compatibilityCons: non existent for me at this time

Card installed and recognized by Windows 10, no special drivers necessary.System is also used for VMware work, ESXi 7 requires installing the Net-Community-Driver, current version is 1.2.7.0. Once that is installed, card is available for use and vMotion migrations are considerably faster than over a 1Gbit network.

worked great and had an adapter to make it fit.

Hello,I purchased two of these to use in a machine for routing purposes. Today, the port used for my WAN interface went out, which resulted in my router flapping (getting an ip from my gateway and dropping it). Luckily I have multiple interfaces, and I was able to restore my uptime by changing my WAN interface to a different port.I need to enter a warranty claim but I'm not sure how to do that. Can anyone please help me?Thanks,-Codi
