Raspberry Pi 3 Asix USB card lose connection

Hi!

I'm using the USB network card Asix ax88179. Continuous streaming does not work, the connection breaks after some time. The built-in 100 Mbit network card works stable.

What is the driver version in LibreElec? It might be that the driver is unstable.

Libre 8.1.2

LE uses the Linux kernel driver for that chipset so it should be considered stable. There is probably little difference in speed between the two devices so if it works fine you might as well use the on-board (also USB) Ethernet.
