YMMV of course, but I had this happen mostly after hours of using the computer (4+ hours). I think it's mostly random when it happens though. The network adapter just fully disappears.
This probably doesn't affect all ASUS mainboards, but I'd assume it affects all ASUS AM5 mainboards in a similar way.
My mainboard is an ASUS ROG Strix B650E-E by the way.
I have a b650e-i
Many factors play into this, like what model switch/router it's connected to.
Ah they sold boards with the bugged versions of the i225? Mine had the rev3 chip which is supposed to have fixed the issues with the older revisions.
No I think it's revision 3 as well (although I'd have to double check to be sure), all revisions have (different) issues apparently. What I'm saying is that the I225 seems to be rather picky about what switches it plays nice with, so while it might work just fine with your specific setup, it might stop working fine when you change one variable (like the switch you're connecting to).
Also in addition to the issues the I225 has anyway, ASUS (and judging by some comments here other mainboard manufacturers as well) seems to have additional issues related to the power management of the built-in I225 adapter. From what I gathered dedicated PCIe cards with the I225 work much more reliably.
