I only have 1 ethernet port on my motherboard, which i am using for internet. I have a pci slot on motherboard. Is this what i need?Will speed be slow

If you only need one Ethernet port, and most of us do, as we are not running servers, this will work and will give you "gigabit" Ethernet capability. I do not know if Windows will configure two ports to run at the same time without using a server OS.

considering the pci 3.0 is backward compatible with the 2.0 specification there should be no problem, however, I have not tried this so it is a theoretical answer. I assume you have two 16 slots and the first is populated with another card. Also as mentioned in order to provide the best throughput you will need 4 lanes. Most motherboards provide 8 for the second 16 slot put it is worth a double check before you invest in the card.

You don't actually use a PCI port, just the bracket slot. That port, however, will be useless with the module in place.

Yes you can connect up to 4 computers from one Ethernet port, Ive never had any problems with it

I haven't tried this but I would be very surprised if it worked this way. I'd put serious money that, no, the ethernet will only work with the primary device. The other 3 USB ports are just a typical USB hub.

I really don't know.I bought one to be capable of using 2 computers at the same time when it was necessary. Once both ethernet cables were connected to this thing-I could not even access the internet with one computer. I had to unplug the ethernet cable from the second computer to get online. I had hoped this unit would work-but it didn't. I did get a full refund from the seller,and Amazon refunded the $6.00 it cost me to return it-so I would say you can take a gamble on it-if it doesn't work for you at least you won't be out of any money.

Hi Harold, I'm going to assume that the reason us are using the forth slot on that board for you wireless network card is because you have a discrete GPU in slot one and you didn't want to have the wireless card that close to the GPU. It really doesn't matter which PCI-e slot you use with the card it will work in a X1, X4, X8 or in a X16 slot but since your board is crossfire/ SLI ready that means the slot you are using shares bandwidth with slot one. And since that motherboard doesn't have on-board video you have to be using a GPU. I'm not sure but you could be now forcing your first slot into operating at X8 instead of X16 by placing the PCI-e x1 card in the second PCI-e x16 slot.

This is a regular Ethernet card, you use it to replace the one on your motherboard if that stopped working or you want to upgrade. It lets you access the Internet, surf online, play games, anything you would normally do. You can use it to transfer data between a server and your pc if needed as well

Yes you can. It network card and Ethernet socket are on the board already (1Gb/s) You do not need PCI card.

Yes, Gigabit ethernet is supported. The on-board network connector supports 10/100/1000Mbps connection speeds. 1000Mbps is equal to 1 gigabit per second, thus the term "Gigabit ethernet". Of course you should have a Gigabit Router\Switch and CAT5e or CAT6 cables to get the best speeds between your other LAN PCs. Your network is only as fast as the slowest device... or "weakest link".

Yes you should be able to customize 1 of the optional ports for a server, If you don't have any other Ethernet needs plug the server into lan port. standard config 1 lan and 1 wan, but can config usb for mobile broadband modem, and 3 other optional ports. Hope this helps

Short answer is no. Also remember that this runs at USB 2.0 and fast ethernet, the best speeds you can hope for will be in line with ~10MBps. For example; to write 1TB of data it will take ~30 hours.

Two gigabit ethernet ports. The rest of the specs can be found here => http://us.shuttle.com/barebone/Models/XH61V.html

If you only need to hook up one PC, go ahead and plug it right into the modem - this will work great. Just make sure your PC's firewall is enabled! Your PC is receiving direct, unfiltered Internet when hooked up like this.

Gigabit ethernet is backwards compatible and should work just fine with any flavor of ethernet. A USB to ethernet adapter, may or may not function at the gigabit speed, but should support other flavors of ethernet just fine. If you want up-to-date technology and maximum speed over ethernet, I would suggest the T'bolt to e'net adapter....my 2

You will get USB 3.0 speed on this PCI-E card, as it speed is by the PCI-E slot and chipset not that of the motherboards.

Yes, networking is built into the motherboard on this model, either 10/100 or gigabit depending on the configuration.
