JK is terrific BUT I cannot use it as - it appears - there is a HUGE issue with adapters for ethernet/USB. NONE WORK!
And over Wifi lots of issues with timing.
No word so far from Apple
Lots of hints tips and tricks - I even dove into Terminal!
No luck I say so far but I doubt I am going to spend more time on this.
No ethernet ... no JK. As simple as that.

Running the same age MBP, running Big Sur and have no issues whatsoever with either ethernet adapter (Thunderbolt) or anything I plug into USB, including Behringer or Focusrite audio interfaces.
I do believe you have a local (and probably isolated) problem.
FYI - WiFi is just not done when doing audio production, esp. online. Too much noise/jitter resulting in higher latencies.
Interesting - the ethernet issues are mentioned all over Apple Forums and others ...
What adapter are you using? And I also have no issues with any Thunderbolt ot USB efficacy other than the ethernet adapter.
Could be this adapter but I have seem a few other makes listed that are not working and On the forums someone from apple says it is an issue.
Curious - make/model what are you using
And yep I know all about the wifi/vs wired not new to this rodeo. I did two albums working over the internet as far back aas '96. (HAving a T1 was pretty interesting back then!)
This adapter (MOBI LOCK USB Adapter) worked fine pre Big Sur on ...
2015 MacBook Pro Retina two USB 3.0 ports, an HDMI port, an SDXC card slot and two Thunderbolt 2 ports 16 gig RAM and a %)) G SSD
Thanks in advance

Since my upgrade to macOS11 went smooth and fast I didn't realize there are seemingly that many issues for I guess 'less lucky' users.
Anyway, I use a very cheap Chinese Apple clone Thunderbolt -> RJ45 adapter which functions without any issues pre-through-after the move to macOS11.
I did a quick google and on discussions.apple.com there are several reports from people that have (found) usb -> eth that do work for them. (if you need to use usb)
As I understand it is a driver vs security policy issue (kext) that could possibly be remedied by doing some manual work on the command line. This could be make/mfg specific though. (I really didn't get into it too deep, but these are recent threads)
