unable to install r8168-dkms for Realtek NIC

Today i updated PVE to 8.2.4 and the network card works well now. I am able to get 920+ mbit/s on both streams, up and down.
i'm fresh install and updated PVE, network card works but sometime disconnect if vm run, i think its still bug in realtek nic r8168

Thank you.

I have been testing proxmox for the past 8 months and didn't have any issues until I updated to 8.3.2 last week. Tried several solutions some seemed to work only to get the same issue 2 days later and I couldn't manage to install r1868-dkms in any way until I finally found this. It still hasn't been a lot of time since I installed this but no problems so far

Thanks for updating the package. I still encounter a problem, after running your package and restarting my proxmox server (v.8.3.2) no network flow is passing: I cannot ping from my server to any equipment on my network
