Hello Jtoftth,
I am Jaspreet Singh an independent advisor.
The adapter should have plug and play functionality. Have you tested the adapter with another system? Device descriptor failed error can also mean a faulty device.
USB to Ethernet driver pls

Hi I bought from the market a generic USB Ethernet Adapter Version QTS1081B no 9700 , but without a driver cd.
so where can i download applicable driver from?
it shows "USB device descriptor Request failed" with yellow exclamation mark. not installing driver from windows update.
>>
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
A request for the USB device descriptor failed.
>>

2021-02-10T06:38:25+00:00 yes, please note the issue is now solved, it indeed has plug and play.
The point to remember is , Plug in the ethernet cable to the usb adapter for it to recognize in plug and play by a win10 computer. (the led in USB to Eth adapter should light up, which happens only when you plug the ethernet cable to the connected usb device)
Thankyou for prompt reply.
