Why do I loose connection to the KLANG processor with a 10G network adaptor?

Newer Mac computers might ship with a fast 10G network adaptor. This adaptor sometimes runs into communication issues if the connected device (e.g. a network switch) does not support 10G. In that case, a significant percentage (e.g. up to 50%) of the network traffic might be dropped. But as it still works from time to time, this problem is hard to troubleshoot. Unfortunately, this issue has not been addressed properly by the manufacturer of these computers, yet.

Solution: Use a USB Gigabit network interface.
