Hello, I bought the ethernet adaptor when I bought my framework pc, everything works nicely. but I have a second pc (not a framework pc) which I need to use the ethernet but it does not have the connector. and I am curious, would it be possible to use the expansion card as ethernet to usb c adaptor in this pc? thanks in advance, ---

Yeah, used it yesterday to download a game faster on my SteamDeck, works great 😁
