After the onboard NIC kept dropping. My online was really slow and always dis-connecting. Installed this NIC and am a happy camper again.

The purchase, shipping and install was great.. Bought on the 15 August, worked perfectly.. fire the pc up today and it does NOT work, Sept 21, cannot figure out how to contact the seller for any kind of warranty information on it. would NOT recommend. My mother board actually died.. so this was not defective.

The Ethernet port on my motherboard was fried. I plugged this card into an expansion slot and it worked perfectly.

The ethernet port or driver on my motherboard is bad and I can’t seem to resolve it so I chose this as an alternative. It’s perfect except when you boot your computer, the PCIe has its own start up along with your boot. Minimal pain loss with minimal download speed reduction as well.

I have same issue as posted by "MmmDee in the United States on April 7, 2023" - not compatible with Windows 10 running on Dell Optiplex 790. On booting, the NetXtreme NIC displayed a banner "copyrighted 2000-2004, hit Control-S for settings", and the system would not boot. Changed BIOS to disable on-board NIC. System booted to login screen but froze. Rebooting never displayed a login screen again. Removed NetXtreme NIC and system booted. Tried this process 2-3times with no luck to use it and my system was unable to read the included CD, labeled "BCM/M Driver (dated 22/05?)".

This is a decent, no-frills network card that's natively supported out of the box by Windows 10. Plug it in and away you go.

I bought two of these for the very specific purpose of using them for Wake On Lan (WOL) between two desktops. One desktop is a Plex server box that always stays on, and the other one is a gaming machine that I like to wake up remotely to stream games. This worked flawlessly over my onboard LAN ports, but this will NOT work over these Broadcom NICs. It shows options for WOL and magic packet sending but it will not work. I made sure to set the APM options in the BIOS to keep the NIC on while the PC is off, no luck. After some digging, I even realized these do not run at the 1Gbps advertised speed, which lead me to believe it was a driver issue. After making sure I had the latest drivers installed, I kept tinkering with it for a few hours until I finally gave up. These are still running at only 100Mbps and they do not WOL even though everything is enabled all the way through. These appear to be legacy NICs and they are cheap for a reason. I was hoping to find a cheap solution for my needs, and as far as I saw, this should have worked. But aside from the apparent lack of WOL functionality, claiming to be 1Gbps just to sell me old legacy gear that runs at 100Mbps is not okay, that's false advertising. One star. Stay away unless you need something VERY basic.
