Hmm. I've been a network manager for over 20 years, supporting tens of
thousands of staff and students at a university where there's a lot of
gaming activity and I've never heard the term gaming adapter before.
The term could mean many things...

The first few hits I get refer to a USB device to connect to a console
to give it WiFi capability. That's not what Charles described, and what
you referred to, which is a network bridge.
