I have this laptop dock for my work and personal laptop:

I am updating my home network to 2.5 gbe, so I bought this adapter:

Should I plug the adapter into the dock USB C port or the laptop USB 3.0 port? I am hoping for the dock because today only a single Thunderbolt cable currently connects to either laptop and this would keep the setup as simple as it gets.

    it doesnt really matter with the exception of the bandwidth left on the port.

    What I would do is plug into the dock and see how it goes, if you dont get the full bandwidth plug directly into the laptop.
