USB 4.0 Type-C 10G Ethernet Adapter, for High-Speed Network Connections, RJ45 Port Supports 10Gb/s, 5Gb/s, 2.5Gb/s, 1Gb/s and 100Mb/s Base-T

Have not used it for extended periods of time, but seems to work correctly when combined with a USB4 or Thunderbolt4 port. It does get HOT, so don't put anything on top of it. Windows 11 driver worked just fine out of the box, but I did tweak some settings. I do this on all my Ethernet adapters. If your USB4 port is not also Thunderbolt, this device will not show up as a network adapter. It uses the Aquantia chip. It will show up as a USB device with no function.

Fun to find the driver, but when it worked, it worked... Exceptionally hot to the touch; no active cooling. Perfect to cook some eggs on. Well, after about 6 months, it stopped working -- probably due to the extreme temperatures under which it operated since first install. Maybe good for occasional, short-duration use, but my intention was to use it full-time from my NUC; apparently, my expectations were set too high. Despite it no longer working for network traffic, I can still use it to keep my coffee warm by balancing my mug on top of it.

This USB 4.0 Type-C 10G Ethernet Adapter, with RJ45 Port does get recognized at 10Gb/s by Windows 11 Pro and works fine, except that it needs to be unplugged for every reboot otherwise confusing the Bitlocker in my Dell laptop. It does need to be connected to a proper USB-C Thunderbolt port as its manual says and gets quite hot. I have not tested the max speed of the adapter itself.

installed it to add the 10gb to my macbook, get full 10gb speed out of the box, when I did a test using iperf3 and openspeedtest I like the build quality, the unit does get warm, but not hot. the design where both cable on the same side of the unit is odd.

WARNING!!! WARNING!!! WARNING!!! Run from this piece of junk! It would not even give me 1Gbps speeds nor would their driver download work (it would not even download! Waste of time! Would not recommend this junk!

The USB 4.0 Type-C 10G Ethernet Adapter promises blazing-fast connections across every imaginable speed tier; but what it delivers is more lag than lightning. From unreliable connectivity to frequent dropouts, this adapter feels more like a bottleneck than a boost. Despite claims of 10Gb/s support, most users will be lucky to hit basic gigabit speeds if the device is even recognized. Compatibility issues abound, and the build quality feels like a race to the bottom: flimsy casing, loose ports, and a suspicious warmth during use that doesn’t inspire long-term confidence. Hard pass!

Running iperf3 tests under windows, this adapter tops out at around 6.5gig. On Linux, it gets proper 10gig. For the price it's very well built, it stays nice and cool, and I've found it reasonably reliable -- zero disconnects after a day of usage. Unfortunately, on Windows it's only a bit faster than the $40 WisdPi 5gig USB adapter, at 3x the price -- seemingly due to driver issues with the underlying AQC113 chip. It's hard to recommend this for Windows users when an extra $60 can get you full 10gig on Windows, and $100 less can get you 5gig. If you use Linux or macOS, on the other hand, this is a great buy.

Using a Mac Mini M2 Pro. @Price of $129.99, this is the cheapest external 10G adapter on the market...! Already have a Sonnet and an OWC. Figured I'd give this one a chance, even though it seems brand new to market, and was pleasantly surprised when I ran true test file transfer speeds write and read right at the 10G target speed to our NAS. Who ever knows with longevity with any of these, but as of right now, can definitely recommend to save the $70-$170 compared to others.

Funktioniert!

Amazing 10gbe actually works doesnt overheat on sustaineed writes i have a 10gbe network and this is the best value to get 10gbe via USB 4/TB3

Gran velocidad y estabilidad, no necesita drivers en MACOS, está conectada a mi MacPro M4 sin problemas

was working great for the first 4 months but now it’s having connectivity issues due to what i would assume is overheating since it’s extremely hot to the touch.

This thing works as inteded, but when it gets hot it sometimes disconnects/disables the unit. I opened mine up and placed thermal pads on the compononents and that seems to have fixed the problem.
