H!Fiber.com Gigabit PCIe NIC with Intel I210 Chip, 1Gb Network Card Compare to Intel I210-T1 NIC, Single RJ45 Port, PCI Express 2.1 X1, Ethernet Card with Low Profile for Windows/Windows Server/Linux

does not work in my application - Dell 7070 and VMware

This card was purchased after a close-by lightning strike killed the onboard NIC in the PC as well as the switch port. The Gigabit PCIe NIC with Intel 82574L Chip arrived in a box inside a clamshell plastic case. The PC was powered off, opened up, installed the card (remembering to touch the case frame while doing so for grounding - didn't have a wrist strap), closed it up and powered it back on. Windows 10 automatically recognized the card and added it to Device Manager. The enclosed mini CD-ROM was put in and we followed the instructions on the screen to load the Intel drivers. Connected a new cable and we had network connectivity again! We've been using the card for a week now almost constantly with no issues.

Our Dell XPS 8930 at church that we use for streaming has the Intel "killer" ethernet E2500 chipset in it. Worked good for a long time, but then all of the sudden it would start dropping out during a service. It would disconnect for a few seconds, then reconnect. It would do it quite often. Tried updating the drivers and trying other tweaks found with net searches but no luck. We switched to wifi but that was causing issues too, the video would stutter or freeze from time to time. Probably because too many devices were connected to it? So decided to try add-on card in the computer. The X4 slot was being used for a video capture card and the X16 for a video card. It has 2 X1 slots but I think the video card covers one of them. After the fiasco with the E2500 was hesitant to go Intel again but the I210 chipset gets good reviews so got this one. Thankfully was able to squeeze this into the open X1 slot and so far so good, our streaming connection appears to be solid now and speedtest is reporting 200/200 which is what our internet service is. Even changed the settings in OBS to get a better picture and it handled it like a champ.

Eingebaut und funktioniert. Unter Linux und Windows gleich erkannt, Treiber direkt installiert. Verbindung stabil und schnell. Volle Empfehlung für Gigabit Netzwerk.

This network card is exactly what I needed for faster wired connectivity. Installation was simple, and the card was recognized immediately without any driver issues. The Realtek RTL8125 chip delivers consistent and reliable speeds, making it perfect for gaming, streaming, or large file transfers. The build quality feels solid, and the card sits securely in the PCIe slot. I’ve noticed a significant improvement over my previous 1Gb network card, with stable and smooth performance. Overall, this is a high-quality, easy-to-use upgrade for anyone looking to boost their network speed. Definitely a five-star choice for home or office setups.

happy to get this network card i recommend this
