I'd like to install Debian 12 in a GMKtec NucBox M3 PLUS, but the installation

Is this box compatible with Linux? anyone!
Network hardware is sometimes newer than what Debian has support for in
the installer. I had this issue a few years ago, probably with Debian 10
or 11. Workaround was just plugging in my phone (some people call this
USB tethering) to get online and update the system.
I didn't think of using my cell phone's wifi (or there was a reason that
was unacceptable), so my solution was buying an aftermarket ethernet
card. I got one of these:
06:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network
Connection (rev 01)
06:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network
Connection (rev 01)
It has two ports, on the off chance one of them dies but the other doesn't.
