2.5GB 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

I've purchased 5 of these for my Lenovo Tiny PC servers in my homelab setup as I have a Trendnet 2.5GB switch. These cards are excellent value for the money. Linux, HomeAssistant, and Windows all recognized them immediately and got them running almost instantly. Great plug-n-play solution to upgrade network speed of your devices.

Works as intended. I got over 2gbps speeds. Easy install too, not rocket science. But there was no screw with the adapter, which was unfortunate, so anyone who does not have extra screws with their pc case just know that. Stable connection too, haven't had any problems

Nice to be able to use my 2G internet speed. Simple quick setup. Workes perfectly

I got FIOs and realized my main work computer was only using 1/2 my available bandwidth, so I bought this card. I am able to easily hit the 2 Gig bandwidth now that my ISP provides. I looked at other nics and this one was cheaper. I find it a good value for the money. I just plugged it into my computer and it just worked, no driver issues. Im running Ubuntu 25. I like the small form factor of the card. Seems fairly durable. I would recommend buying this again.

Network Card was purchased for a 13-year-old Dell XPS with a malfunctioning Ethernet port. Installing the device was quick and easy. Windows 10 detected it and installed the driver for it. I finally have constant connection to the internet again. It works great with Broadband speeds. There is no fiber internet available where I live.

This card works as advertised and is so simple and quick to install. We have 1GB fiber at our house but my main computer was only getting 150MB download because I had to use a USB to ethernet adapter (ABLEWE 3-Port USB 3.0 Hub with RJ45 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter) after lighting fried my original ethernet card. The whole process of installing the TP-Link 2.5GB card from turning off the computer, installing the card, rebooting, and running a speed test was less than 5 minutes! Finally, as another reviewer noted, I did not need the driver disk, Windows 11 automatically recognized the card.

Worked good for me. I have a NAS and this more than saturates the connection. My current bottleneck if the read/write speed on the drives but I tested this with a m.2 NAS and was able to get close to expected speeds Good price and super slim. My GPU leaves barely any space but it was able to fit Website was easy to find and drivers are right there. Just go on the website and download the current drivers or you will be running a 1.0 old driver that might or might not work for you

Works flawlessly, easy to install
