According to many commenters in the linked thread, it's fixed in MacOS 13.2.1. Not great that it happened at all, but good to see that it was a software issue.

Is it a software issue, or a hardware issue that could be worked around in software... (sorry for the rant as an embedded system developer).

The latter is very common in the desktop/server space, too. If you ever write or work on drivers, you know.

To the end user, if it doesn't impair performance, does it matter?

I have MacOS 13.2.1 and it's definitely not completely fixed -- but better.

I did a ping test against my home router and I still get about 10% packet loss. Much better than the 40% when I first plugged it in.

Uff yeah it's still horrible!

The above suggestion fixes it, hopefully permanently: settings->network-><ethernet interface>->details->hardware "change anything, safe and undo"

Can you try a speed test? That level of packet loss will make TCP connections perform incredibly poorly.
