Doesn't work in Netgear XS708T switch with Intel I225-V 2.5Gbps NIC

Was able to extract full speed from Intel I225-V v3 NIC. Used in a Netgear XS708T switch with 2 SFP+ ports. Throughput tests with iPerf3 show that the speed is asymmetrical. The speed from the Intel card is a full 2.5 Gbit/s and the speed to the Intel card is less than 500 Mbit/s. Technical support has attempted to change almost all buffer sizes and offload settings in the Intel NIC driver, including using jumbo frames. Nothing worked and I ended up having to send it back. You may have better luck with Realtek 2.5Gb/s NICs and this transceiver, but if you use it with Intel 2.5Gb/s NICs, don't worry.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
