TRENDnet has recently released version 1.0.1 of the driver for the TU3-ETG USB 3.0 Ethernet adapter. The addition made for this release is the autorun interface.

However, this update installs driver version 1.6.1.0 on Windows XP and Vista, 1.14.7.0 on Windows 7, and 1.16.7.0 on Windows 8. It will work with both the 32- and 64-bit versions of the above OSes.

When it comes to performance, the TU3-ETG will cover up speeds of up to 2 Gbps and will work on all USB standards.

Besides speed, this device is also very light and, therefore, portable. Weighing only 25 g (0.9 oz), it is easy to put in a laptop bag, for example.

This device will come in very handy when you have a tablet with only a USB port (Microsoft Surface, for example) and no time to waste transferring data over a wireless connection.

Download the driver at the link below and stay “updated one minute ago.”
