USB Ethernet adapter stopped working after update to 6.12.0

[mattl1598]

I was using a 2.5g ethernet adapter to connect my PC to my unraid server and it was working as a secondary interface on 6.9.2. I updated to 6.12.0 this morning and that adapter immediately stopped showing up.

It still shows in System Devices and lsusb but doesnt show in the Network Settings or in ifconfig.

 

Edit: forgot to put the adapter

What do I need to do to get it working again?

Thank you! works like a charm.

 

Note to anyone else with the same issue, remember to add the recommended line to the 'go' config file for the full 2.5G speeds

Wholly heck.. Thank you so much.   This resolved my same issue.   I was thinking about going back to 11.5 because I couldn't use my adapter but this worked perfectly!!

The adapter is working but not getting faster then 1g even with adding the line in the go file.   Still testing but exceeding so far.

So after doing my testing (I have 3 servers) - 2 ASUS and 1 MSI all with realtek's.

 

MY PC (RYZEN 9 MINI PC with INTEL I225V) - ASUS MB with 1G (so using the Realtek dongle) and when sending to realtek dongle, getting speeds of 2.5g but when sending from back MY PC, getting 1.8g (using a 3.5g mp4 test file)

 

With both other Servers conducting the same test, got the same quick transfer TO the server from MY PC, but when going from SERVER to MY PC (1-1.2g Speed).  These are using the built in 2.5g Ports

 

So the driver definitely helped as far as getting a non working 2.5 USB adapter recognized again.   

 

This is the link to Amazon dongle that I used.

If we can only figure out why the speed other direction is slower.   Server to Server transfer is also 1g but i don't think i can use this driver on those because it's not the same realtek, both of the servers are 8125B - would I cause a problem with using these drivers??
