Hi Hans,

actually the driver i use is not agxe (i thought it would be by the time i
bought the usbcard)

this is the module im using

if_ure.ko

and thank you , yes, reseting the usb entry with your command worked just fine.
i got the internet back after doing this

usbconfig -d 0.6 reset

do we have a bug here then?

thank you
