The model "DELL Inspiron 5379 2-in-1" does not officially support Windows 11. However, I upgraded anyway, and the result is so far, so good in most parts.
However, the USB Ethernet adapter is getting disconnected once in a while. I tried a TP-Link UE300 and an Amazon Basic, and the two adapters got the same system behaviour. To keep it simple, the information in this post is collected from the testing with the TP-Link adapter. Usually, the adapter can reconnect after a few seconds.
I checked the "Event Viewer," and I noticed a coincidence happening at the same time in the context of "Windows Logs > Security": at the time of disconnect, the system log recorded several "Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing" events in less than one second.
The WiFi works OK but is slower than the cabled Ethernet, so I still want to try fixing the USB Ethernet adapter.
I will highly appreciate any hints and suggestions, and please let me know if you need any more details.
