TP-Link2.5GB PCIe Network Card (TX201) – PCIe to 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter, Supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8/7, Win Server 2022/2019/2016, Linux

Mi internet no es muy rápido pero se siente más estable con este adaptador de 2.5GB.

This works just as advertised and is super easy to install and gives you the advertised speed - This works fantastic and is at a super price point

Installed it on my Windows 11 PC, very easy. When I plugged in my ethernet cable, still only 980Mbps with an internet speed test. Hmmm, I have Bell Fibre with a H-4000 router, 1.5Gbps service and CAT 6 cable but no prize. According to the TP-Link support site, the 2.5Gbps light should be flashing but it wasn't. Long story short, was not plugged into the 10Gbps jack (The silvery one, not yellow) on the router. That was the trick. Download speed test was 1.6Gbps, yay! Works like a champ now. Highly recommend and way cheaper than getting a new motherboard, aka newer PC.

Easy install (open the PC... find a slot... press it in... close PC... start PC... Windows sees it and installs it... DONE!) That's what it did for us. Performance is as expected, but I didn't do any serious testing as we have only light internet needs. I've used TP-Link products for decades and really cannot remember any failures. Seems like a solid company.

I was a little sceptical of buying a Realtek network card after seeing all the reviews online of Realtek vs intel network chipsets. It’s hard to find a 2.5 gig network card with an intel chipset since there are known hardware issues with the intel chipsets. After downloading the latest drivers from the Realtek website, I have not had a single issue with this card! I can download games on steam at my internets full 1.5 gig download speed and latency in games is the exact same as my motherboard’s on board intel 1 gig chipset.
