If you have an adapter from another manufacturer and encounter issues with this driver, we recommend reaching out to them if you encounter any issues, though we encourage people to leave comments about their experiences below for the benefit of others.) (Please note, these drivers have only been tested by Plugable with the USB3-E1000 and USBC-E1000 adapters that we manufacture. Please visit our FAQs below for any additional questions. We have observed some issues on M1 Apple Silicon systems regarding Sleep/Wake (Power Nap) behavior and some specific applications needing Wi-Fi to be enabled and connected for initial connection (Spotify, for example). That is not to say there are no problems with these drivers. Overall, functionality is on par with the previous KEXT/System Extension achieving similar upload/download throughput ratings while leveraging Apple’s design implementation for extensions that operate outside of the system kernel and reduce (or remove) the potential for system hangs/locks due to kernel-level extensions working in system space (like KEXTs). Below, you will find ASIX’s DEXT Application for Driver Extension for compatible products in macOS 11 Big Sur, along with complete installation instructions.

While we take their plug and play functionality for granted, Ethernet drivers are complex, and building stable, performant drivers on the new DEXT architecture and the requisite new code signing process, was not a trivial task. Specifically, for Plugable (and other major brands), the new driver architecture caused compatibility issues with USB Ethernet adapters featuring the ASIX AX88179 chipset used in our USB3-E1000 and USBC-E1000 adapters, among others. One of the biggest changes was a complete overhaul related to how Hardware Drivers interface with the Operating System (System Extensions, KEXTs, were deprecated in lieu of Driver Extensions, DEXTs).
