WisdPi WP-UT5 is the first Realtek RTL8157 5Gbps Ethernet (5GbE) to USB 3.2 adapter to make it to market, following the launch of Realtek RTL8126 5Gbps Ethernet PCIe and M.2 adapters last June, and the announcement for both the RTL8126 and RTL8157 chips at Computer 2023 last year.

Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE or PVE) is a virtualization platform designed for the provisioning of hyper-converged infrastructure.[from wikipedia]

WisdPi has posted a simple tutorial to teach you how to add a USB 3.2 5Gbps ethernet adapter(WP-UT5) to your PVE, and how to increase the bandwidth of your pve's network interface at low cost!
