Hi

 

I have purchased a TX201 for my machine running Kali and Win7.

 

I was unable to make it work on Win7 due to driver signature problem ! I have tried the driver on the CD and I have also downloaded the driver from Realtek and still windows says that it cannot confirm the digital signature of the driver.

 

When it come to Linux-kali, I have  managed to install the driver (latest version from Realtek) however it runs very slow and it's far from the 2.5G ;-)

 

My pc is directly connected to the 2.5Gb/s port on my provider router. So NO intermediate switches or devices. I am using a Cat8 cable. I have a 2Gbit provider link. I have tried nperf and speedtest servers and never went over 660Mb/s.

When using the 1Gb card of my PC (on board of my motherboard card) and my macbook 1G adapter using the same network configuration and same websites to test I can reach a little bit more than 900Mbit/s bandwith !

 

Any idea ?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best

Abdo

Same here. I understand that there are lots of folks with this issue. I have had variable results from different driver sets and the realtek version for win11 is the best so far but max 500 if I am lucky.

Hi

On Windows i had to change few settings in order to install the driver, and had to change the default parameters (of course i can send you a copy of the actual config).

On linux, had to use the driver from realtek and change the default parameters.
