Hi Ramesh,
Please could you post some example daemon.log entries and any surrounding
entries that seem related?
Also is there anything in
/var/log/syslog
that seems to relate?
Perhaps
$ sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep x
where x = the interface name concerned.
Thanks,
Gareth
Hi Gareth,
This is what I find in daemon.log

After this happens, most of my net access goes down. Firefox cannot get
to google.com/youtube.com. DNS lookup also returns nothing for external
hosts. I see similar messages on /var/log/syslog also

Looks like kernel finds usb NIC again and tries to do something? Since
dhclient is not aware, it does not know how to handle. I get this from
dhclient for the *next* DHCPDISCOVER/REQUEST

Hope you can find something useful. For now, I simply edited
avahi-daemon.conf and denied this interface as one not to be
observed/managed. That fixed the part of the problem. Other issue is
reported in one of my followup.
Regards
Ramesh
