Adding RTL8153 support to rue(4) (actually cdce(4)) USB to Ethernet driver [SOLVED]

[Kevin Lo]

Been busy at work, sorry for the late reply.  I have a patch that adds 
preliminary support for the RTL8153 to ure(4), available at:
https://people.freebsd.org/~kevlo/ure.diff

Performance is not good, it could be improved later.
Can you please give it a try and let me know?  Thanks.

	Kevin
