I don't remember seeing a rating for it in that regard, but I have been using it 24/7 since November with success. It is warm, but seems to work well. Glad to see you landed on this one. I bought a different one first, and couldn't get it to work. Good luck! **Q: Will this work with Linux? Are there Linux drivers?** A: The chip vendor (Aquantia) makes a Linux driver available here https://www.aquantia.com/support/driver-download/ This device is the AQC-107. I can't speak to the quality or installation process for this driver, but Sonnet's site points you there. http://www.sonnettech.com/support/kb/kb.php?cat=537&expand=_a3&action=b1032#b1032 **Q: Will this work with a intel nuc?** A: I never even heard of an Intel NUC. But I looked it up, and it does have a Thunderbolt 3 port, so I guess - yes, it "should" work, as long as you can download drivers for normal Win 10 computers on the Intel NUC Bob Zelin **Q: Windows 10 isn't finding a driver for this adapter... I've approved the adapter in the thunderbolt app, but can't find a driver... Do I download it?** A: You can download Windows and Linux drivers from the support area of the sonnettech web site. MacOS drivers are native. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Is the best *by on Reviewed in the United States August 12, 2026* **Excellent 10GbE Adapter**The Sonnet Solo10G works perfectly with my 2020 iMac\. macOS recognized it immediately, with no drivers or complicated setup required\. It negotiates a true **10Gbase\-T full\-duplex** connection, and I’ve reached close to **8 Gbps** in real\-world speed tests\.Build quality is excellent, the connection is stable, and performance is exactly what I was looking for\. Just make sure you pair it with a proper high\-quality Ethernet cable and a real 10GbE network\.**Highly recommended for anyone who wants reliable 10Gb Ethernet over Thunderbolt\.** ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fast, and easy to use! *by on Reviewed in the United States October 16, 2018* I’ve been wanting to upgrade my home network to 10G speeds, so I bought the solo for my network adapter for my Alienware 17 R5 laptop. This device does achieve the rated 10G speeds. I have this wired to a 10G UniFi switch via cat6, the switch is also connected to my server with a 10G nic that has a m.2 SSD drive. And in the attached video you can see that a 15 gigabyte file transferred across my network in 15 seconds!!! Don’t forget that your speeds will only be as fast as other bottlenecks in your system as most mechanical hard drives top out at 150 MB/sec and even standard SSD top out at 500 MB/sec. (non-raid). m.2 SSD drives are really fast and will allow reads and writes at or above the 1Gb/sec transfer rate. Most of the time this device runs slightly warm, however during long durations of high speed transfers it does get hot. But I have had no issues after 2 weeks of usage. I’m very happy with the product and highly recommend for laptop uses, as a standard 10G nic is more cost effective for a desktop application. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great and is highly recommended *by on Reviewed in the United States January 17, 2026* I picked this up based on recommendation from the tech who installed my fiber optic internet service. It works really well and I am able to get the full use of the speed my ISP offers. I like that it is configurable and they periodically update the drivers and firmware for it. I can recommend it with confidence. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sonnet Technologies Solo 10G Thunderbolt 3 to 10GBASE-T Ethernet Fanless Adapter (SOLO10G-TB3) - Synology Network Upgrade Module adds 1x 10GbE RJ-45 (E10G22-T1-Mini) - TP-Link TL-SX105 | 5 Port 10G/Multi-Gig Unmanaged Ethernet Switch | Desktop/Wall-Mount | Plug & Play | Fanless | Sturdy Metal Casing | Speed Auto-Negotiation --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/69290581-sonnet-technologies-solo-10g-thunderbolt-3-to-10gbase-t-ethernet](https://www.desertcart.at/products/69290581-sonnet-technologies-solo-10g-thunderbolt-3-to-10gbase-t-ethernet) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
