A: This uses the Realtek RTL8168C chipset

**Q: Re: 1-port mini pcie card. pin 1 on the 10-pin cable can't align to pin 1 (arrow) on the board. is this known or should it be connected backwards?**
A: Dear Customer,
The Cable should have an arrow as well to show where it lines up. The cable is designed to only go in one way.

**Q: Will this work in an m.2 slot in a dell optiplex 9020?**
A: This is a mini pci-e type device.  The connectors may be similar, but are incompatible.

**Q: Is this will change my Mac adress?**
A: Dear Customer,
It would be a new NIC so it would have a separate MAC address.

    Good for average user, not for competitive gaming
  

*by H***A on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2022*

So I should say it works. Very easy to installThat being said, it's a realtek NIC. Mysteriously had minor packet loss in fornite and as soon as I swapped to an intel card, all those issues were gone even with driver updates.So again, it's good and it works IF you don't need your internet to be super consistent. Most average users dont so like streaming/browsing internet/emails stuff like that.

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2017*

Worked great on my Intel Atom-based Pico-ITX board (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OY8YRGW) running Linux (Debian 8 "Jessie"). Didn't even have to pull down any new packages from apt-get, worked out of the box. The chip is just a Realtek RTL8168, which is very common and fully supported by most (probably all) modern Linux distros without having to compile anything yourself. Speed tested with some simple benchmarks the same as the onboard chip on my board, which is also a Realtek gigabit and probably is pretty much the same.Build quality seems fine, we'll see if it stands the test of time but I don't see any red flags. At least on my Pico-ITX board, the pins on this card don't get anywhere near touching anything they shouldn't like some reviewers mentioned, but obviously your mileage may vary.This is especially handy because in the embedded space it isn't always easy to find a reasonably priced board with dual ethernet, but a lot of them have Mini-PCIe now. Will update if I run into any problems.

    Perfect for IPfire or pfSense
  

*by T***G on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2014*

From the description I expected to receive a full size Mini PCI-e card, but this is actually a Half Mini PCI-e card.I purchased this for a cheap Dell FX160 to add a second ethernet adapter so I can use the computer as a router/firewall. It has worked so far with IPFire and pfSense 2.1.So far it has been working flawlessly for almost a month. It was immediately recognized in Ubuntu but I have not tried it with any version of Windows.UPDATE: At first I could not get this to work with pfSense. It seemed to recognize the adapter but after setup I was unable to connect to it.Due to another user's comment I decided to try it one more time and it is now working perfectly with pfSense 2.1!
