Review on 💻 QNA-UC5G1T: USB 3.0 Type-C to 5GbE Adapter by Kyle Costello

Compact size - great function. It connects at 5.0 Gbps on Linux (Fedora). However, the throughput of iperf3 is around 2.8 Gbps due to the limitations of the 2013 machine it is connected to. It's still 2.8x faster than native 1GbE, so no complaints here. The only vulnerability I found is in the Linux driver itself. It takes time to mature. It initializes slowly and is therefore not ready fast enough when the system boots up. Network connected shares sometimes need to be manually mounted offline. At this price point, it's well worth the money and breathes new life into a limited capacity device, much like a SATA 3 SSD would in a traditional hard drive device. does.
