thunderbolt ethernet adapter regular crash after plugged into MBA

My MacBook Air 13" mid 2011, OSX 10.9.4, crashes EVERY time I connect it to ethernet via a thunderbolt-ethernet-adapter. This is how it ALWAYS looks like

  • I connect the adapter and the LAN/Internet connection is recognized and starts working
  • The MBA continues to work for about 5-10 seconds before the screen turns black and (after a few seconds) grey notifying me that the computer had to reboot due to unexpected issues.
  • The MBA boots normally and continues to work as it should - no issues after crash/reboot

The MBA shows this behavior every day after I took it away to work in the train and connect it to LAN again in the evening. It used to work hassle-free with a USB-ethernet-adapter that recently died on cable break.


This is what I have tried so far without any success:

  • Resetting NVRAM/PRAM
  • Deleting the USB-ethernet-adapter in the network configuration menu


I searched a lot to find a similar case and workaround, but find anything helpful.

PLEASE help anyone!!

Thanks

Stephan

I wish someone from Apple would reply. I have a Mac Book Pro and same issue happens to me in the morning when I get to the office and plug in to ethernet. I just have come to expect it now. Same panic.
