Hi
I was going open a bug for this.
Just found the solution: as root give the following
modprobe rndis_host

@developers: could you check it and apply a patch?
Thank you so much

This is the likely cause: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1205767

[Bug 1205767 - VUL-0: kernel: protocol problems in RNDIS drivers] has apparently led to a decision to blacklist the RNDIS drivers.
