mike123abc Posted May 4, 2025 Posted May 4, 2025 Gigabyte Z890 Gaming X Wifi7 motherboard (intel) The specs of the motherboard list Realtek® 2.5GbE LAN chip (2.5 Gbps/1 Gbps/100 Mbps) The Wifi MediaTek Wi-Fi 7 MT7925 Neither of the interfaces appear to have been found.. Opening a linux shell just shows the loopback interface "lo" I see from other posts realtek ethernet adapters appear to cause issues. Is it best to get an add in card? If so what would be a good 10gbs that is known to work with HexOS? Quote
PsychoWards Posted May 4, 2025 Posted May 4, 2025 Hey, Yes Realtek doesn't play nice with Hexos and WiFi is not supported at all. If you are looking for a PCIe NIC go with an Intel NIC, if you want to have 10Gbps, go with sth. Like an Intel X520 or X540 depending if you want SFP+(X520) or RJ45 (X540) 3 Quote
mike123abc Posted May 6, 2025 Author Posted May 6, 2025 Got a new Intel X550-10G-2T-X8 card and it finds the new card just fine. Thanks for the recommendation! 2 Quote
