Hello, Bastian, Guys,

I followed your instructions to the letter and did the test without the
nvidia driver (results attached, as requested).
Same unpredictable behaviour - sometimes the NIC would work for like 5
mins, other times for 20 mins (before detaching itself with "Adapter
firmware error").
It works on Windows, hence I isolated this from being a hardware fault. As
mentioned, it's been working for several years without issues.
On the UEFI topic - I am monitoring MSI's mobo page for upcoming updates.
But you're wrong about the model - I am on "Edge Ti WiFi", not "Tomahawk",
if that would make a difference, of course. Let me know if you need further
details and if I need to do other tests.
Thanks & Cheers !
