Thank's for the quick response. In my main pc (Ubuntu 22.04) I also use a rtl8125 network card (mainboard integrated) with ASPM enabled and never had a single connection drop or a reduction in transmission speed. Currently Intel 2.5Gbit/s NICs (i225 & i226) probably suffer from a hardware defect which causes connection dropouts or complete connection loss. i225 NIC (2019) suffered first from the problem and Intel couldn't fix them with the release of the i226 NIC (2022). So I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy them right now until a new hardware revision is released which fixes the bug.

First of all thank you for your good work 👍 The driver for my rtl8125 network card is working flawlessly and the installation was top notch but I have one question. Is there a reason why ASPM is getting disabled during the driver compilation? I checked out the github page and in the makefile for r8125 ASPM (CONFIG_ASPM = n) is set to "no". But in the makefile directly downloaded from Realtek it's set to "yes" (CONFIG_ASPM = y). Are there any negative performance impacts or why is ASPM explicitly disabled? Maybe if there aren't any negative effects when ASPM is enabled it would make sense to provide two driver variants one with ASPM disabled and the other with ASPM enabled. With ASPM enabled the server could reach higher C-States and draw less power.

Thank you very much you saved me a lot of headaches 👍 Adding noserverino to my client mount flags worked flawlessly. I haven't had another Stale file handle error since then.
