    I had a discussion in stack exchange related to the problem that is
    well explained here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/774594/debian-12-all-of-sudden-my-usb3-lan-adapter-get-assigned-random-mac-address-ea

    For what I understood the problem was fixed in 6.8, but I'm using
    debian 12 that will never use that so much new kernel I guess, could
    you help me to report officially the bug so that the upstream channel
    will correct it by the 6.1.0-22 version ?

    Bookwom backports has linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64. You might try that. https://backports.debian.org/

    It just so happens I have one of the same beasties. I just plugged it
    in to a machine running kernel 6.6.13+bpo-amd64, unplugged it, waited
    20 seconds, and plugged it in to another machine running kernel 6.5.0-0.deb12.4-amd64. I then plugged it into a machine with
    6.6.13+bpo-amd64. All three times I got a MAC address of
    8c:ae:4c:d6:22:17. So either of those kernels might well work for you.

    Does anybody read signatures any more?
