      Usb ethernet adapter  (realtek chip 100 Mb )  works only few minutes with data transfer , then is disabled by system (udav0: ) and not visible by ifconfig command.
      Any suggestions ?

        You're better off using an adapter that is not USB.

        It's probably some sort of "power saving" feature of the device that the driver can't tweak.

        Probing it with usbconfig may help, but ultimately, USB NICs are all of questionable quality and reliability.

              Use Hyper-V in between. One out of four adapters are USB in my set up that runs under Hyper-V.

                There aren't any controls for that in the operating system. Ports are detected and used at their highest possible speed.

                What does the output of this command show:

                usbconfig dump_device_desc

                      There are no separate drivers. What it detects at is what gets used.
