USB to RJ45 for my Ubuntu server? (alien.top)

I’m putting my 2060 Super from my gaming rig into the Ubuntu server for transcoding, but it seems it won’t fit with my PCIE NIC. The server is on an mATX motherboard so I can’t just move it to another slot, the port on the motherboard is fried so that won’t work and all I need is one gigabit port. So I’m looking for advice and recommendations. Is USB to ethernet reliable for server use? Will there be driver issues/are there any that are plug-and-play with linux? Any specific models that you guys use/would recommend?

I'm using two of those which come with the RTL8153 chipset. They run fine on my Proxmox server. No seperate driver installation needed.
