Troubleshooting

Device not recognized by computer

Ensure the Thunderbolt 5 cable is securely connected to both the dock and the computer. Verify that the computer has Thunderbolt 5 support and that drivers are up-to-date. Try a different Thunderbolt 5 port on the computer if available.

No video output to monitors

Confirm that the monitor cables are properly connected to the dock's DisplayPort or HDMI outputs and the monitors. Check that the monitors are powered on and set to the correct input source. Ensure the maximum resolution and refresh rate are supported by your monitors.

Slow data transfer speeds

Verify that you are using the Thunderbolt 5 port on the dock and that your connected peripheral also supports high speeds. Ensure no other high-bandwidth operations are simultaneously maxing out the Thunderbolt bandwidth.

Ethernet connection not working

Check that the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into the dock's RJ-45 port and your network source. Test the Ethernet cable with another device. Ensure network drivers are installed and up-to-date on your computer.

Laptop not charging

Confirm that the dock's power adapter is connected and the dock is powered on. Ensure your laptop's Thunderbolt 5 port supports Power Delivery. Check that the power output of the dock (up to 300W) is sufficient for your laptop's charging requirements.
