---------------------------------------+-----------------------------
I can't seem to get a consistent internet connection using the USB RNDIS
driver, with an Android 11 phone (Samsung Galaxy A03 core, on the cheap
end).
Updating the system using HaikuDepot or pkgman it's impossible (it works
just fine using Ethernet). Also, I can't traceroute anywhere. Web browsing
kind of works, but a speed test quickly shows there's something wrong (see
attachments).
I've noticed, using ifconfig, that I keep getting errors on the receiving
side of things. This makes sense as the upload speed seems to be OK, it's
the download speed giving trouble.
The same phone, on the same laptop under Windows works just fine.
I'm guessing there might be a bug on the usb_rndis driver (or higher in
the stack?). My wifi cards are not supported (Broadcom 4313 and USB Ralink
RT3070) so I can't compare.
Also, plugging and unplugging the phone seems to mess with Haiku's ability
to recognise it (sometimes a reboot is required)
