“Does this work with Linux and if so can I get speeds around 1 Gbps? Specifically Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon on kernel 6.11”

Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, the Insignia™ USB to Ethernet Adapter should work with Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon running on kernel 6.11, as this version of the Linux kernel includes broad support for common USB Ethernet chipsets like Realtek RTL8153 and ASIX AX88179, which are typically used in adapters like this one. With proper chipset support, you can expect to achieve speeds close to 1 Gbps, assuming your network infrastructure (router, switch, and cabling) also supports gigabit speeds. Linux Mint’s modern kernel should automatically recognize the adapter without needing additional drivers, making it a plug-and-play experience.
