Thanks for your response, Mr. Hayes.

Mr. Sean, please download and check if "timeout" is still present with built RTL8153 module from REALTEK site, as Mr. Hayes proposed.
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=2&PNid=13&PFid=56&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false#2
r8152.53-2.03.0.tar.bz2

Procedure - should be equal for both, Fedora 21 & 20:

$ uname -r
3.17.8-300.fc21.x86_64

$ su -c 'yum install kernel-devel'

$ tar xf r8152.53-2.03.0.tar.bz2
$ cd r8152-2.03.0/
$ make
$ su

# cp 50-usb-realtek-net.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
# udevadm trigger --action=add

# modprobe -rv r8152
# cp r8152.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/
# depmod
# modprobe -v r8152
