Asix Ax88179 Driver

Post by Geoff1994 »

I recently purchased a USB to Ethernet adapter, the Asix Ax88179, but I'm having trouble finding the appropriate driver for it. I've searched extensively on the manufacturer's website and even browsed through various driver download websites, but to no avail. I want to make sure I have the latest driver installed for optimal performance and compatibility. Could someone please provide me with a reliable link to download the driver? Thanks in advance for your assistance!
