## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It does work well on Windows 11 with a windows 10 driver follow the video in the image.
*by M***N on June 12, 2025*

I had trouble getting it working on windows 11 even trying some other tutorials I found on the internet. The seller sent me the above image with a note and the card comes up very well on both ports now. For the price this is the best value I have found even through it is using a "old" driver. It works well connected to my Ubiquiti set up. I am glad they responded with a note, I had figured I would have to use it on a server platform instead of a workstation. Follow the video from the link above and it will come right up in windows 11. It will warn you about driver signing but it is an Intel driver it is just that they are not keeping up with windows 11. Beyond that the card works well on my mother board. It has a well designed heat sink and where it is located in system it has a case fan directly cooling it. For the price you are not going to beat the card.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast delivery
