Adding USB 2.5gigabit to RT6600ax?

[RP777]

Has anyone tried adding a USB 2.5gigabit ethernet adapter to the RT6600ax? How well did it work and how did you do it?

I have not tried. But since the usb3 port is capable of 10gbps, it might be possible to add even a 10gbps port (even if the overhead keeps it from fully achieving sustained 10gbps throughput, it should be pretty close to that).

Ill be interested to see if anyone gets that to work.

Sorry but usb3 to 10GbE is not possible - it does not exist.*

[*Presumably due to the power required, even ignoring the overheads. TB2, TB3, TB4 and now USB4 do support 10 GbE adapters.]
