Intel Gigabit PCI-E Network Adapter EXPI9301CTBLK

I used it for a Asrock J4105 mini ITX mobo and works straight out of the box. Speed is better than the Realtek 8111 on board lan and synology updates do not break my NAS

Very high speed uploads and doWmloads. Stable connection.

Its working fine, i have a 50 mbps connection and its working great.

Works great as per specifications. Using 2 cards in a PC to get desired result.

Product was genuine, i dint see the logo before and later we noticed. Sorry for the wrong review but product we received is not working.

Nach viel Ärger mit On-Board-LAN war ein Wechsel der NICs von Nöten, und nach ein wenig Suche im WWW bin ich irgendwan bei den CT-Desktop Karten von Intel hängen geblieben. Laut Reviews auf div. Seiten sollten diese problemlos und vergleichsweise schnell arbeiten, was mir bei bisher maximal 12 MiB/s und regelmäßigen Verbindungseinbrüchen mit den Onboard-Lö- sungen mehr als zusagte. Frühere Versuche mit Realtek-basierten Karten waren auch in die Hose gegangen, sei es durch die gleichen Probleme wie mit Onboard-LAN, oder, wie im Fall von 3 bau- gleichen Realtek PCIe-GBit-Karten (in 3 Rechnern) mit dem zeitgleichen Ableben 1 Woche nach Einbau (bei auch max. 12 MiB/s wohlgemerkt). Die Intel-Karten haben derweil die Wochenfrist überlebt und überzeugen mit 50-80 MiB/s je nach Dateigröße und -mischung und bisher 100%iger Stabilität. Es sind keine Einstellungen nötig, die Karten müssen nur eigebaut werden, Treiber von Intel installieren (nicht dabei, muss runtergeladen werden) und fertig. Einziger Nachteil, unter Vista gibt es keine Standarttreiber, d.h. die Karten laufen nicht ohne externen Treiber. Den sollte man also runterladen, bevor man den Onboardkram ausschaltet. Fazit: Die Intel Karten kosten das 2-3fache anderer GBit-Lösungen, belohnen aber mit etwa 5-8fachen Datenrate im Vergleich zu Onboard-LAN (hier 2x Gigabyte mit P35 und X58 Chipsatz, 1x Zotac nVidia ION) bzw. anderen günstigen NICs. Kaufen, Einbauen, Freuen - die Dinger sind es wert.

My Dell Dimension E510 desktop had the PRO/100 VE desktop adapter as its NIC, which worked just fine. I was upgrading my E510 from XP to Windows 7 and wanted a new Ethernet card so I chose the Gigabit CT Desktop Adapter. I had PROSet software installed along with the driver for the PRO/100 VE. Some helpful instructions for those that want to upgrade your driver or install a new Ethernet card; With PROSet, you must first remove your current adapter from the PROSet software BEFORE uninstalling PROSet and the current driver. If you don't you may end up with a phantom adapter that causes problems when you try to install a new version of PROSet and an updated driver. I installed the Gigabit CT card while still running XP. I had a free PCI-Express (x1) slot, which made installing the new card easy. During system startup I entered Setup and disabled the PRO/100 VE NIC and then proceeded with the rest of startup. I then installed a new version of PROSet and a new driver that I downloaded from Intel's web site. I didn't have to reboot after installing the software. The card just worked. When I upgraded from XP to Windows 7, the OS recognized the Gigabit CT card and installed drivers automatically so I didn't have to worry about downloading and installing a driver after installing the OS. The only thing is that Windows 7 didn't install PROSet, which is optional software anyway so it's not required. My house is wired with CAT5 instead of CAT5e or CAT6 so I really don't get the benefit of having a Gigabit network adapter. My VPN router is not a Gigabit router. It's only rated at 75Mbps. With my current Comcast service I'm getting about 25Mbps download and 4Mbps upload, which is about the same as I was getting with the PRO/100 VE NIC so having a Gigabit card isn't making any difference for me. However, the card works flawlessly and I'm very pleased with it. If you're wired with CAT5e or CAT6 and have Gigabit network equipment I would highly recommend the CT Desktop Adapter. It's a great Ethernet card, easy to install, works with Windows 7, and it provides great performance even in a non-Gigabit environment. You can download the latest PROSet and driver from Intel's web site.

Do the job , easy to install

My onboard ethernet connection on my Windows 8.1 PC died due to a power surge, I think. January lightning... So the cheap and easy way to solve this seemed to be a CSL PCIe (PCI-E / PCI Express) Gigabit network card from Amazon, which I ordered for about £5. I have spent a week messing about with a connection lasting max. 90 mins, verifying Windows power management etc. to the Network Adaptor, trying different drivers, and seemingly exhaustive internet searches, and have got nowhere. If I unplugged my ethernet inside the 90 minute window, it would disappear, too, until a complete Shut Down and restart (not just a restart). Bought one of these, also from Amazon. Now I can unplug my ethernet connection, configure a router as an access point (fallout from the power surge), plug my ethernet back in to my network, and it WORKS! If I have any problems, I have the Intel dashboard to go to for help. So fingers crossed! It's not cheap, but Intel do seem to give value for money in the quality of this product.
