Compared with more than 100,000 RX packets, I don't think "dropped:54" and " overruns:336" (less than 0.01%)are too much. What do you think?
PS(some relevant explanations borrowed from Github):
"overruns" counts that times when there is FIFO overruns, caused by the rate at which the buffer gets full and the kernel isn't able to empty it.
"dropped" counts things like unintended VLAN tags or receiving IPv6 frames when the interface is not configured for IPv6.
Thank you very much and best regards.

Hi, The packet loss is within an acceptable range. I don't think it needs to be concerned.
Thank you very much and best regards.
