Description

Realtek RTL8152, RTL8153, RTL8154, and RTL8156 USB Ethernet adapters can use a DKMS-built kernel module. This is useful when USB network adapters need newer or vendor-specific support than the running kernel provides.

It is a driver package. Driver changes can affect network availability after boot or kernel upgrades, so users should confirm the adapter model and keep a fallback connection if the machine depends on that network device.
