I have a HP Laptop 15s-eq3065AU, Windows 11 Version 22H2, which is limited at 100 Mbps for Ethernet in the USB-C (3.0) with the Realtek USB Fe family controller (Network Adapter).
We need to increase Ethernet speed up to 1000 Mbps or higher.
Question 1: Which is the right Realtek Network Adapter for fast Ethernet on a USB C (1000 Mbps or higher)?
Question 2: Is the Network Interface Controller from Realtek USB 3.0 GBE 2.5G ( RTL8156 / RTL8156B(S)(G)) the right one?
Question 3: Or is the Realtek Network Interface Controllers 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet > USB 3.0 (RTL8153 / RTL8153B) the right one?
Question 4: If we download this link the new Realtek Network Interface Controller for Windows 11 is not visible in "Network Adapters". We always see the old Realtek USB FE family controller with limit 100 Mbps.
Check this link: https://www.realtek.com/en/component/zoo/category/network-interface-controllers-10-100-1000m-gigabit...
Question 5: Must we keep the Realtek USB Fe familiy controller? Or do we disable or delete?
Thank you for your help.

From the following information
https://www.hp.com/th-en/shop/hp-laptop-15s-eq3065au-78j26pa.html
Your machine does NOT have RJ45 port. I'm using the following adapter

And I've got 2 more USB 3.0 ports
Regards.

Hello Banhien,
Thanks for your fast response. So I do not have to change/replace the current Realtek USB Fe family controller (Ethernet Network Adapter) which is limited at 100 Mbps if I use the USB 3.0 and Gigabit Ethernet Hub?

Hello Banhien,
It's not working.
After connecting the USB-C Gigabit Ethernet Hub, the Realtek USB FE Family Adapter appears again in the Device Manager/ Network Adapter. Maximum speed under "Properties/Speed + Duplex" is unchangeable at 100 Mbps.
Could you please provide a replacement Network Adapter for my HP Laptop under Windows 11 for 1000 Mbps or higher?
Appreciate your help, thank you.
