I've tested the hub and PD power adapter (Anker) on the same laptop on the |
47 |
Windows 10 partition. No luck. The PD chip in the laptop is recognised by |
48 |
Windows 10 though. |
49 |
|
50 |
I've ordered a replacement adapter (Anker), and hub, which should arrive |
51 |
tomorrow - I'll see how that goes. |
52 |
|
53 |
At this point, its either one of three things: |
54 |
|
55 |
- The laptop hardware. |
56 |
- The USB-C hub. |
57 |
- The Anker power adapter. |

Time will tell.... |
