Hi all,

I have the problem, that I cannot reach more than 20-40Mbit/s when using the
AX88179 chip (1Gbit/s NIC) on a USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Port (same on a 480Mbps
High Speed USB v2.0-Port).

# usbconfig dump_device_desc
(...)
ugen0.7: <AX88179 ASIX Elec. Corp.> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER
(5.0Gbps) pwr=ON (124mA)

  bDescriptorType = 0x0001
  bcdUSB = 0x0300
  bDeviceClass = 0x00ff  <Vendor specific>
  bDeviceSubClass = 0x00ff
  bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000

  iSerialNumber = 0x0003  <00000000000001>
  bNumConfigurations = 0x0001

plugged into this USB controller:

I'm using FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p19.

Did someone of you ever managed to reach a higher bandwidth with axge driver
and AX88179 chipset?

Best regards
