Review on πŸ”Œ X-MEDIA 1-Port PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet PCIe Network Card - Windows 10 & Linux Compatible [XM-NA3800] by Doug Hinrichsen

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I never got it to work

Intel hardware on my motherboard stopped working after the update. I couldn't figure out what happened, but after all THE MOTHERBOARD IS TEN YEARS OLD. So I bought this network card to plug into a PCIe slot. I plugged it in and started Linux Mint 19.3 OS. He installed the driver, but the board did not connect to the network. After two days of troubleshooting I sent it back to Revain (thanks Revain!) and bought the board with a Broadcom chip. It ignited right away.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
