📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

Hi I am having an issue with a Plex LXC. When I start it, it will run for a while then it will knock my entire proxmox host off the network. I can go to the host and get to the console, but it can't see the network at all. I try to restart networking, and that does not work. I can reboot and if the LXC is not set to autostart the Proxmox host will run fine. This is a brand new clean LXC install. I have not even configured it at this point. I tried recreating the LXC with the script and end up with the same issue. If I try a shutdown from the console it will hang. I have to do a complete hardware reboot to get the host back up.

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

I can delete the LXC and run the script again. The new LXC will exhibit exactly the same issue.

❌ Paste the full error output (if available).

No errors or logs, the proxmox hosts just disconnects from the network and I have to restart with a hardware reset.

🖼️ Additional context (optional).

here is the config I am using:

After investigation I am not entirely sure this is related to the script. It only started after I installed the script but there are reasons to believe it may be unrelated. Will reopen if I can nail down definitely that this is the script
