I've never seen a USB 3.0 host connected behind a Lightpeak interface before. I thought light peak was only available in Macs. > If I boot the laptop with the dock connected the hub in the dock works fine. > I can connect devices and they all work. > If I connect the dock while the laptop is running the USB hub in the dock does > not work.
