I am using a Toshiba DynaDock 3.0 with a Surface Pro 2 tablet, the graphics and all else work great, but When I connect the dynadock all my wireless networks disappear and I become disconnected, if I unplug the dynadock they all re appear, and the network that I was previously connected to before plugging in the dynadock is actually still connected. All routers and USB connections are over 25' form the DynaDock. I have installed the latest 7.5 drivers. I noticed in the Device manager however the DynaDock Audio and DynaDock Ethernet devices are showing astrics by them and I can't seen to get the drivers loaded .
I will include the DisplayLink Support files that were created by the DisplayLink Supoort tool.

Thank Jon Stroh

Hi,

Regarding the audio and ethernet drivers not being installed can you try these steps:

1. Right click on device in device manager
2. Select Driver
3. Select Update Driver
4. Select Browse my computer for driver software
5. Select Browse
6. Enter C:\Program Files\DisplayLink Core Software\
7. Check Include subfolders
8. Select Next

Repeat for both audio and ethernet.

Regarding the WiFi disconnecting, this may be related to this FAQ:

Thank You that did it :) I had already read the post about the USB 3.0 interference, but I kept thinking I don't have any wireless devices.... thinking of only keyboard and mouse.... then I realized the Surface Pro 2's wireless Ethernet adapter qualified so I moved the Surface Pro 2 as far as the DynaDock cable allowed and Viola!
So it fixed it with a wireless router connection, now to see if it stays connected to the wireless connection on my Verizon Hotspot on my Windows phone :)

Thank for your help!
