Hello All,
I received my UGREEN USB C to 2.5G Ethernet Adapter today to improve the bandwidth on my proxmox (Dell OptiPlex 7070 Micro).
I connected the USB and ethernet. Switch and device show connection.
![Screenshot 2024-04-20 161107.png Screenshot 2024-04-20 161107.png](https://forum.proxmox.com/data/attachments/66/66397-f293a8301bdcc80cd875cc2a6338849f.jpg)
I created a bridge, added it as the device to the ports, everything showed as active therefore thought it was good.
Next I switched a VM over to use the new bridge. I could no longer connect to the VM.
I added a IP to the bridge, and was able to successfully ping and connect to the VE. I know the device works, just cannot get it to function in a bridge.
I am at a loss here, I wanted this as the primary connection with failover to the onboard NIC. but I am stumped on what I am missing to have this functioning as expected.
Any help would be much appreciated.
