Ethernet Adapter Drivers Windows 7

Among several NUC's at home, I replaced a 5th gen NUC with this 13th gen model. It serves as a media center for my music and photo collection, hence the 1 TB SSD and 16 GB memory. For those unfamiliar with the Intel NUC product line, they are small (4x4), very quiet, well-engineered and supported by a three-year warranty. Over the years, I have installed dozens for customers and not a single one has failed so far. The performance is impressive. The clip that keeps the power cord from inadvertently being yanked out is a fairly recent and useful addition. Intel has excellent documentation (assembly instructions, product specs) that I recommend. During installation of Windows 11, neither the wired Ethernet nor the Wi-Fi adapter were recognized which required an Ethernet-to-USB adapter. Others may add the network drivers during installation. Installing the Intel Driver & Support Assistant gets the optimal BIOS, firmware and drivers in place. Now that Intel has sold the NUC line to Asus, I hope that they will continue the development and support of this great product.

If you don't have a built-in Ethernet adapter, this gets the job done. Windows automatically identified and connected to the adapter. I was successfully on the Ethernet within a few seconds.

Works fine with Windows and Mac. This adapter can basically max out a gigabit Ethernet connection. I have it connected to a USB port on the back of my monitor so that a single cable gets me not only power and video, but also a better internet connection.

...After downloading the drivers needed to run it with Windows 7.....

Not much to say, it's a USB to Ethernet adapter. Works exactly like you would want it to.

..first 24 hours..used only 7%..couldn't ask for anything better...

It works like it should. On windows 10 immediately, on 7 it takes some time for the is to find the drivers but then it works also.

Good great with my m2 mbp and also windows laptop too, no need to install drivers.

Super simple and works as expected. Windows 10 drivers come with Windows so no need to pull anything down!

Worked as advertised when connected to laptop via ethernet plug for broadband service. Fortunately, there was no need for the drivers and whatever else is on the included disk, since I cut it in half while opening its plastic packaging.
