Model: LE8111H

Do I need to install a driver on Windows?
Windows 11/10 and Linux — no, plug and play. Windows 7/XP — download the signed driver from the GLOTRENDS support page.
My motherboard's onboard LAN stopped working. Can this card replace it?
Yes — install the card, connect the cable, optionally disable the onboard NIC in BIOS. Use Cat5e or better for full speed.
Will it fit my slim / small-form-factor case?
Yes — low-profile bracket included, standard bracket preinstalled.
Does it support Wake-on-LAN and firewall/NAS systems?
Yes — WoL works after enabling in BIOS/UEFI; pfSense, OPNsense, Proxmox, unRAID and TrueNAS run out of the box; ESXi needs our driver.
The card is not detected or there is no link. What should I check?
Reseat the card, try another PCIe slot and a different cable. Still not detected? Contact GLOTRENDS support.
