I am trying to add my Windows 10 PC to my small 2.5Gbe network, using the Plugable 2.5Gbe to USB C dongle. It works at advertised speeds between my Mac Mini and a Proxmox Server according to iperf3. But it is only getting 1.2ish GB/sec on the Windows machine. I updated drivers, switched USB ports, etc. until I broke out the manual for my motherboard (ASUS Pro WS X570-ACE). There, it plainly says next to virtually every USB port mention:
"USB 3.2 Gen 1/Gen 2 devices can only be used for data storage only"
Call me naive, but I have never heard of such a thing. Does it mean that networking is hobbled somehow on USB for this motherboard? If so, I am out of luck.
Maybe I will need to use a PCI-E based solution. Anyone else run across this?
