Re: CAX80 Multi-gig ethernet port dropping

I see for the OKN that's a Realtek chipset. I'll check the one 2.5Gb adapter I have, I wanna say it's a Intel but can't remember. 🙄
Both of these direct connect to the MultiGig port in back?

I see. Ok, that's kind of new to me.
I had my wifi running however mine was connected to my 10Gb switch and not my 2.5Gb adapter PC. Saw no issues while I had this online for several days with the CAX80 wifi enabled.

I'll put my 10Gb switch on a 1Gb LAN port and get my 2.5Gb PC on with the MG port and re-enable the wifi radios.
