Advanced users • Re: ASIX ax88179_178a not getting predictable network interface name

Disaster! One of the USB ethernet interfaces failed to get a predicable name - sometimes eth0, sometimes eth1.
The ethX names aren't "predictable network interface names" as they're solely based on enumeration order of network devices. The predictable network interface names instead tie it to some unique aspect like MAC address or expansion card slot ID e.g. ens1p1 = network card in slot 1 - port 1.
It worked fine before. It is an ASIX chip using ax88179_178a.
Show the output of dmesg for when its eth0 and eth1.
