It's not necessarily avahi doing that. A DHCP client might also configure a 169.254.*.* address for you if it doesn't receive a reply. In order to have the slightest chance of helping you it is necessary for you to provide the information as per below. Files should preferably be attached, to avoid issues with copy-paste. Please do not edit anything except to obscure private information (e.g. passwords or a public IP you don't want to post). 1. content of /etc/network/interfaces and all files under /etc/network/interfaces.d/ (I seem to recall you are using ifupdown) 2. Full output of: apt list --installed 'network-manager*' # might be empty apt list --installed 'avahi*' # might be empty systemctl status systemd-networkd ip a # short for 'ip address' ip r # short for 'ip route' 3. Information on anything (and I do mean anything) else you might have done to your network configuration after installing buster, including but not limited to: * installing stuff, especially if from source * removing stuff (especially if not 'purged', dpkg -l would tell) * manual changes to files (deletions/permissions/etc. (especially those unnecessary "fixes" you call "neutering") For the record/archives: other users are not seeing your problems. Buster is - at least for me - the best Debian release yet. The problems you are seeing are, at least partially, of your own doing, most likely due to wrong configuration and an approach of using the equivalent of a shotgun to kill a fly and then complaining your walls are full of holes.
