Troubleshooting
No video output to monitor
Verify all cable connections are secure. Ensure the HDMI cable supports 4K@120Hz and is connected to the correct ports on both the dock and the monitor. Check if the monitor source is set correctly. Test with a different HDMI cable.
Device not charging
Confirm that the USB-C power adapter plugged into the dock provides at least 45W, preferably higher for full performance. Ensure the power adapter is connected to the PD input port on the dock. Try a different USB-C PD charger.
Slow or unstable internet connection
Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the dock and the router. Verify that your router's port supports Gigabit speeds. Test the Ethernet cable with another device.
USB peripherals not recognized
Try connecting the USB peripherals to a different USB-A port on the dock. Ensure the peripheral is compatible and does not require excessive power. Test the peripheral directly with your device if possible.
Display shows lower resolution or refresh rate
Confirm that your monitor and HDMI cable are capable of 4K@120Hz. Adjust the display settings on your connected device to select the desired resolution and refresh rate. Ensure the correct USB-C port on the host device is used if multiple are available.
