Ethernet problems?

[NighthawkTheProto]

Has anyone else noticed their ethernet adaptors no longer working, with a system crash when going to settings>connections>mobile hotspot and tethering with it plugged in?

(I have already sent a report, just want to see if this is a common problem.)

EDIT: After beta update 5 the problem seems to still persist, but this time the crash throws me into the "Samsung Galaxy" boot screen before letting me log in

EDIT 2: After update 6 the problem now only works if the "Ethernet tethering" setting is tapped on (with ethernet adapter plugged in), the mobile hotspot and tethering menu is exited and re entered.

I don't have an ethernet adapter to try this but I'm curious what use case you have that you can't use for example WiFi tethering? Is it for better latency or so?

@NighthawkTheProto,

Thank you for having reported the problem. Hopefully it can be quickly fixed!

My use case for this is when docking my phone at home I prefer ethernet due to lower latency (router sometimes works and sometimes refuses good connectivity to wifi devices) and convenience (already in the dock but issue persists on OTG adapter so crash isnt from dock). Especially when doing work on DeX ( haven't checked if it crashes on dex yet)
