With the issue reported in Bug# 13692, would it be possible to revert the kernel to 6.6.15 in CU 186?
Hello Charles,
No, that is something that we cannot do as we would reintroduce all security vulnerabilities that have been fixed in the last 17 kernel releases.
However, did you confirm that enabling CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM works? You mentioned this here:

Hi Michael, I would be happy to give that shot. I did a fresh pull of master into local git repo and have been grepping about looking for where to enable CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM. I am a bit of a novice here at this sort of thing. Could you point me where to do the enable thing for this config setting? -cab

Okay, I found it and it is currently set thusly in master "kernel/kernel.config.x86_64-ipfire:CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_NCM=m". Does that already imply that it is enabled?

Hey Charles,
Well, that is a little bit unclear in the bug report. It is compiled as a module. I would say that that counts as enabled. You can check if it is being loaded using “lsmod”.
