Hardware and Performance / Are Realtek NICs really that bad?
« on: November 08, 2019, 06:52:18 pm »
I know it's a slightly leading title but the reason for asking is that I have an N3060-based device with dual Realtek RTL8111HS on-board which I'd like to use for OPNsense. Usage is just myself and my wife; we don't stream anything so it's mainly internet browsing and email with the occasional W10 or driver download the only things of any size. The line is 35Mbs down and 10Mbs up. Is this going to be adequate for my needs or would I be wasting my time with it and I should go for something with dual Intel NICs?
