FAQs
What is the difference between this adapter and onboard network ports?
The TG-3468 provides an alternative or additional gigabit connection for desktop PCs. It's useful when a system lacks onboard networking, has a failed network port, or requires multiple independent network connections.
Will this adapter work in my older computer?
Yes. The 32-bit PCI Express interface is compatible with most desktop systems built in the last 10+ years. However, verify your PC has an available PCIe slot before purchasing.
What is Wake-on-LAN and how is it useful?
Wake-on-LAN allows IT administrators to remotely power on or wake a computer from sleep over the network. This is valuable for managing fleets of business PCs and reducing power consumption.
What does Auto MDI/MDIX do?
Auto MDI/MDIX automatically detects and adjusts to the type of network cable (straight-through or crossover) connected to the adapter, ensuring compatibility with any standard Ethernet cable.
Is driver installation required?
Most modern operating systems recognise the Realtek RTL8168E chipset and install generic drivers automatically. For optimal performance and Wake-on-LAN support, you may wish to install TP-Link's certified drivers from their support site.
What warranty does this adapter include?
The TG-3468 includes a 36-month manufacturer's warranty, covering defects in materials and workmanship.
