Comment 15 for bug 1954746

I have a similar problem. Here are one workaround and one partial solution that i've accidentally discovered.

A workaround: i have a short USB to USB extension cable. If i connect my AX88179 adapter not directly to the port, but through this cable, it works. I suspect this might have to do with USB3 vs USB2 modes, but i do not know.

A partial solution: i've discovered that unplugging the adapter, then executing

    sudo rmmod ax88179_178a

and then plugging it back in make it work without errors.
