## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why am I not getting 5Gbps speeds?**
A: • Ensure your USB-C port supports USB 3.1 Gen 1 or later. • Your router/switch must support 5GbE speeds. • Use a CAT 6a or better Ethernet cable. • Some devices limit speeds to 2.5Gbps or lower.

**Q: Why is my connection limited to 2.5Gbps or lower?**
A: • If your router/switch supports only 2.5GbE, 1GbE, or lower, the adapter will auto-adjust. • Some USB-C ports provide only 5Gbps total bandwidth, limiting networking speeds.

**Q: Does this work with all USB-C devices?**
A: • No. It requires a USB 3.1 Gen 1+ port with data transfer. • It will not work on power-only USB-C ports (often found on some laptops and tablets).

**Q: Do I need to install drivers?**
A: • Windows 10/11 and macOS: No drivers needed. • Linux & Other OS: Manual installation may be required—check our SABRENT Support Page for drivers.

**Q: Why is my adapter warm?**
A: • The aluminum body helps dissipate heat. Mild warmth is normal. • If excessively hot, check for firmware updates and proper ventilation.
