Does anyone have the driver for the x540-10g-2t please? i can't get any intel drivers working.

You can download drivers from Intel. Drivers will come in vXX that contains drivers for a lot of NICs. If your in Win10 then you will need to install drivers. Win11 installs drivers automatically but these are not the latest ones. For ESXi7u3, then you can download drivers from VMware download, other section you will drivers for the controller.

can you use this to connect to the internet?

Yes, but Unless you have a very fast internet connection, its wasted. richie

Regarding if this is similar to synology, the webpage and datasheet of the synology e10g18-t2 does not provide information on what chipset is used?
