Can you get 100Mbit/s with it?
The laptop I use also has no ethernet. I bought a USB dongle for that
but it turns out it can only do the original 10Mbit/s, half-duplex;
much
slower than wifi and even somewhat slower than the WAN connection
here.
I have a gigabit USB 3.0 to ethernet adaptor here. It's branded Digitus
which probably means nothing, lsusb shows
ID 0b95:1790 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88179 Gigabit Ethernet
The one I have is also USB3 and looks fast, but I didn't test it yet -
right now trying to setup gentoo :-)
