History

2025-12-02: mmcsd0p3 - zroot - I switched to a Lenovo USB to Ethernet adapter. usbconfig says

root@devpi5sd:~ # usbconfig -d ugen0.3
ugen0.3: <Thinkpad LAN Lenovo> at usbus0, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=SUPER (5.0Gbps) pwr=ON (72mA)

and from dmesg

ugen0.3: <Lenovo Thinkpad USB LAN> at usbus0
ure0 on uhub1
ure0: <Lenovo Thinkpad USB LAN, class 0/0, rev 3.00/30.00, addr 2> on usbus0

ue0: Ethernet address: 3c:18:a0:20:6a:49
ue0: link state changed to DOWN

it works.
