I couldn't upgrade ASUS XG-C100C with Marvell firmware though. It doesn't work. I know there is a way to do so. But I didn't try it. Because it doesn't work properly after upgrade.They work fine with Ubuntu 18.04 with whatever firmware is baked into the kernel.
"limited to 5G for some reason?" : check your PCIe slot type and speed.Picked up a TX401 today. Works well in Windows (although limited to 5G for some reason?), but in Linux (Manjaro) it will not detect a link. Going off of this thread: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/aquantia-aqc10x-firmware-update.56888/page-4 and others it seems that a firmware update may fix this issue. Card is currently on 3.1.100. It also looks like Marvell has taken down the firmware update tools from its website. Are there reliable links to this anywhere? Thanks.
It works good with Linux. Have you read Readme file?Thanks for the detailed response. I guess Marvell moved things from where the other links I had found pointed to. Was able to update the firmware to 3.1.121 and the driver to latest, and everything appears to be working well in Windows 10 but still not detecting a link in Linux. Will have to do some debugging there...
