Report Date: 2024–2025 (Current) Subject: VIA Technologies QF9700 USB-to-Ethernet Adapter Target OS: Microsoft Windows 11 (21H2, 22H2, 23H2, 24H2) 1. Executive Summary The VK-QF9700 refers to a USB 2.0 to Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) adapter based on the VIA Rhine QF9700 chipset. This chipset is legacy hardware (circa 2005–2010). Windows 11 does not include a native inbox driver for the QF9700. However, a compatible driver exists (the built-in Windows 10/11 CDC Ethernet driver or a modified VIA driver), but installation often requires manual intervention due to driver signature enforcement and Windows 11’s enhanced security. vk-qf9700 driver windows 11
