Hello,
I'm having the exact same issues as you. When usbguard is working, everything on my dock seems to be working perfectly fine EXCEPT the RJ45 port.
I have the exact same issue if i'm using an USB-C RJ45 adapter.
If i disable usbguard and reboot, both devices allow me to connect to my network through the RJ45.
Additionnally, the RJ45 dock / adapter seem to work only if they're connected to the machine when i reboot. If i unplug them and replug them in the machine after that, they stop working... I'm really struggling to understand the pattern here.
Did anyone found a workaround or have any clue on what's going on?
After further testing it seems that the RJ 45 is functionnal only if the device is plugged on the machine when it boots.
For example:
I tried this with a DELL dock, a DELL USB-C adapter and a UNITEK adapter, all behaving as described.
Recently my laptop stopped connecting to the Ethernet adapter on my docking station.
After debugging, it seems to be likely connected with usbguard, at least it only appears with usbguard running:
after stopping usbguard, reloading and triggering udev, the device works:
