Net Plus Attachment (Drivers)

Curious if anyone has to install any drivers to make the Net Plus visible in the operating system on their Up Core boards.

Is it typically just visible as another PCIe device? I only see drivers in the software section for Windows 10, I assume Linux systems detect it on PCIe and use the appropriate module from the kernel for it.

For those of you that are using the Net Plus board, which OS are you using and did you have to perform any extra steps to make it accessible from the OS?

Yes, I have tried it on Linux and the Ethernet, USB 3 ports are automatically detected by the kernel.
On Ubuntu installer, all the Ethernet ports were available.

If you are connecting the Net Plus to an UP Xtreme, you are missing a cable, we just made the announcement: https://forum.up-community.org/discussion/4073/net-plus-and-vision-plus-x-with-up-xtreme#latest
