it is a Zeevo chip, but it is the old generation and I had not very good
experiences with it.

It is not the dongle itself. It is the firmware inside and it is a
problem of both sides. It is safe to fallback to DM1, but this means
that the bandwith will be decreased. If you have chips from the same
manufacturer on both sides everything is almost fine. Personally I
prefer CSR chips, because they cause less troubles. But to decide which
side is doing bad on the link manager, you must use a protocol analyser.
