Hi, There is no word on the Synology E10G18-T2 Specifications that this card is MultiGig capable for handling 2.5GBase-T (that's what the RAX120 port is) and 5GBase-T - only 10GBase-T is listed (interestingly not even the commonly workably 1000MBase-T.
Wrong card for this purpose I'm afraid - not a Netgear issue at all.

Thank you for the help! Apparently the single port version of the card, E10G18-T1, does support 2.5G/5G but not the dual port. Strange. Also read on a couple review sites claiming it supported 2.5 and 5.
Guess I need a new card. Thank you very much for your help.

That's strange - Robbie does claim both come with the Aquantia AQtion AQC107 NIC, supporting 10/5/2.5/1Gbps and 100Mbps speeds.
