1. Please describe the problem: USB Ethernet has often packet loss Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8153 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter 2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel: 6.16.3-200.fc42.x86_64 3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue *first* appear? Old kernels are available for download at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 : 6.15.10 4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce the issue below: ping facebook.com 5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``: 6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?: 7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag. Reproducible: Always
Could this in fact be the kernel bug described here (regression causing IPv4 broadcast packets to have their ethernet destination field mangled)? https://lore.kernel.org/regressions/20250822165231.4353-4-bacs@librecast.net/ If so, it also impacts wifi and "normal" (non-USB) ethernet users, for example as reported in https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/kernel-6-16-3-and-intel-ax200-wifi/163257
This is a regression in 6.16.
The scope of the title should be expanded to encompass more than merely USB 802.3.
