Definitely the USB-C on a NUC7 (maybe the model matters maybe not)
I have tried to reset the port in the NUC setup (Video default to HDMI) but no go. I have a USB 3 version that DOES work....
I also tried this same adapter (USB-C ) in a NUC 8 and it DOES work.
I have a ESXi6.7 install on a Intel NUC7i5BEH, the adapter is StarTech US1GC301AU2R USB-C to Dual Gigabit Ethernet Adapter with USB (Type-A) Port. I did a esxcli hardware pci list | more and see the device but doe not show up in esxcli network nic list and not showing in vcenter GUI. Is this adapter not supported? Any hints?
