Disconnecting USB3 ports with many Displaylink devices

Have you tried a USB 2.0 cable? It sounds a bit like you have something dodgy going on in USB 3.0 - which should be faster but is more sensitive to bad connections. This would indicate a HW problem somewhere in the chain.

Also make sure you have the latest drivers installed - we're always working on making behaviour better under error conditions (will autoupdate the FW) .

I haven't tested with and USB2 cable. Given the extreme bandwidth issues with USB2, this would render the entire docking station pointless. Even if the device would function "properly", the whole reason for having an USB3 docking station would be void. I have installed all the current drivers.
