Hi all!!

I think the rndis_host USB driver might emit a warning in the dmesg, but disabling the driver wouldn't be a good idea.
The TP-Link MR6400 V1 LTE modem and also some ZTE modems integrated in routers do use this protocol.

We may also distinguish between these cases and devices you might plug in - as they pose different risk levels.
Again, you have to fully trust the other side of an RNDIS connection,
any hints on how to have the kernel determine that?

thanks,
