I'm on the market for a descent USB ethernet adapter to be used on a FreeBSD laptop. Could anyone recommend one? By descent I mean something that can sustain at least 500 Mb/s and support 802.1q VLANs. I recently got an ure interface and I am extremely disapointed by this product, it has no VLAN support [1] and does not pull more than 45 Mb/s even when hooked to an xhci port. BTW the observed bitrate looks suspiciously consistent with an high speed interface, however it looks it has negociated super speed. usbconfig: ugen0.2: <Realtek USB 10/100/1000 LAN> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER (5.0Gbps) pwr=ON (72mA) iperf3 report: [ ID] Interval Transfer Bitrate Retr [ 5] 0.00-10.00 sec 54.4 MBytes 45.6 Mbits/sec 556 sender [ 5] 0.00-10.01 sec 54.2 MBytes 45.4 Mbits/sec receiver [1] Despite it being advertised on the chip datasheet. -- %!PS -- Bertrand Petit /D{def}def/E{exch}D/G{get}D/I{2 div}D/U{dup}D/L{roll}D/Y{setgray}D/N{newpath}D /O{N 0 0 moveto}D/P{pop}D/T{translate}D currentpagedevice/PageSize G U 0 G/w E D 1 G /h E D w I h I T 0 Y 1 setlinewidth 0 1 2 { P 120 rotate 2 4 w U mul h U mul add sqrt I 50 add {N 50 0 3 2 L 0 360 arc stroke}for}for/s{O true charpath pathbbox exch 4 -1 L E sub I 3 1 L sub I} D /l(bp)D 0.94 Y /Helvetica findfont 22 scalefont setfont l s P(x)s exch P T O l show showpage
