Hey everyone,
I have started using a bunch of USB-C accessories with my laptop and other devices & I wanted to tap into the community here for some help. While USB-C is supposed to be this universal, super convenient connection, I have noticed a few weird things happening—such as some cables not charging properly or certain docks not being recognized by my computer.
Has anyone else experienced issues with StarTech USB-C products or just USB-C in general? Any tips on how to make sure everything works smoothly? Also, if you have favorite USB-C hubs or adapters that just work without fuss, please share!
I am also diving into a Python tutorial to automate some device checks, so if anyone has advice on combining USB-C hardware with programming, that would be awesome.
Also i have check this Ethernet drops out on high CPU load for USB-C Multiport Adapter still need tips. I want to hear your real-world experiences, especially if you’ve found good workarounds or fixes for common USB-C quirks.
Thank you.
Hello @Sakura,
Thank you for posting on the Startech.com Community!
As troubleshooting steps will vary depending on the specific Startech.com product, the hardware (computer, displays, etc.) being used with it and the specific issue, there are only a few generalized recommendations we could offer for troubleshooting steps without know the specific details.
I would recommend checking with the manufacturer of your computer for updates to any of the following for your specific model of computer:
- Drivers e.g. USB controllers, graphics card, etc.
- Firmware
- BIOS/UEFI
In addition to the above, I would check if the USB-C device you are using has drivers of its own and that you have the latest version installed.
Regarding your question about automating device checks or programming with USB-C hardware, this would be beyond our support. I apologize for the inconvenience.
If you are experiencing issues with a specific Startech.com product, I would recommend reaching out to our support team via phone or live chat: StarTech.com Support. Live interactions through phone or live chat allow us to better understand what is happening, allowing us to provide the best support and can often have a quicker turnaround to a resolution.
If there is anything else we could help with, please let us know!
