    Hello,

    Setup Details

    I have Ryzen 5 1600 + A320 Chipset motherboard (USB 3.2 Gen1) connected to my OnePlus 8T (OOS13 stock firmware) with USB 3.1 Gen 2 cable (USB C to USB A).

    PC is running normal Windows 11 Pro (up-to-date) without any deep modifications or 3rd party antivirus.

    I am using USB tethering for Internet sharing of my 5G network

    Problem Details

    Task manager and network adapter settings Window will freeze when there is 1gbps+ load. Rest of the PC continue to function properly. Running a simple internet speed test will freeze the task manager and I either have to unplug the phone or reboot the PC.

    Digging Deep

    Google search points to Microsoft NDIS Driver issue, however that is supposed to be fixed under Windows 11 but it seems I am still facing it.

    Any idea what should I do to fix it?

    Thanks.

    if is a driver issue theirs very little you can do until MS releases another working driver you mite want to post this issue on the MS forums so they be aware of the problem and look into it....have you tried a different cable sense your mobo uses USB 23.2 Gen1 and your cable is Gen2....also make sure your phone firmware is up to date.
