I have a Raspberry Pi connected to a router with internet access via the physical LAN port. I want to connect the Raspberry Pi to another router without internet via a USB to LAN adapter. I have some IP based devices connected to the router without internet access, which i want to control with the Raspberry.

Im not able to see the ethernet interface of the USB to LAN adapter. The physical LAN port works flawlessly. With the command ifconfig i get following output:

eth0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 10.84.130.204 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.84.130.255

The USB to LAN adapter es recognized by the Raspberry. With lsusb i get following device, which is my adapter:

Bus 001 Device 004: ID 17ef:7205 Lenovo

Do i need to install some drivers or configure something special to see both ethernet interfaces?

Im using this Lenovo adapter: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/so...0-ethernet-adapter-overview-and-service-parts

Thanks for your help!
