Is the USB network adapter support stable in Debian Buster? I ask because I 
suspect that my USB3 gigabit network
card is dropping packets.

When I ping www.yahoo.com 10 times through this USB adapter hooked up to my 
Spectrum cable modem, I lose anywhere
from 0% to 60% of the packets and this is happening consistently.

I do:

$ ping -c 10 www.yahoo.com ; sleep 15 ; ping -c 10 www.yahoo.com ; sleep 15 ; 
ping -c 10 www.yahoo.com ; sleep 15 ; ping -c 10 www.yahoo.com

If I'm lucky, one of these four rounds of ping will have a drop rate of 0%.

I've ordered a PCI 32 bit gigabit card to bypass the USB entirely, but I'm 
still curious if my hunch about a USB problem is correct.
