ASUS USB-C2500 on Linux

Issue with half duplex on ASUS USB-C2500

Problem well(?) known with Realtek chip - ASUS card uses cdc_ether driver instead of r8152.

Was figthing with but at the end use blacklist /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-asus-2500.conf:

blacklist cdc_ncm
blacklist cdc_ether
blacklist r8153_ecm
blacklist cdc_wdm

Might be needed some hacked driver from:

@mitchross as far as I remember ... no.
Effect was still below my expectation of having full 2.5 Gbps.
I think it was around 2 Gbps.
As I didn't have a pressure to make it working on 2.5 Gbps I've stopped fighting with that matter.
