Title: USB 3 to Ethernet adaptor recommendations
Post by: HenrysCat on March 14, 2021, 03:50:07 PM
Any one use a good reliable Gigabit ethernet adaptor? I am currently using a Lenovo 03X6903 USB 3 but it only shows up as 100baseTX <half-duplex> in the Lobby, looking for one that will connect at 1000mbps.

Thanks all
:)

Is it connected to an USB 3.0 port?
Some only establish a 100baseTX link when connected to USB 2.0.

Maybe no driver support for FreeBSD/hardened BSD.
You should use a hardware with a real nic.
