I have specialized the quirk entry to the specific 0x31fd version in my gadget.

Searching for the obvious words reveal a major world of confusion
as to what works for which version of the 8153 and what does not.

In my case, the if_ure driver fails to even get the link up
reliabily, switching between link-up and link-down every few
seconds.

The if_cdce driver at least works, even if performance sucks
(185Mbit/s tx, 89Mbit/s rx)
