USB Hub / Dock diagnostics

Test what the browser can see. Know when it cannot.

Diagnose a hub or dock by testing the downstream device paths individually and separating power, cable, port and display/network functions.

Run these first

Relevant live checks

First diagnostic sequence

Do the high-signal checks before risky changes

  1. 1

    Test one downstream device at a time

  2. 2

    Connect the dock's required power supply

  3. 3

    Compare the same peripheral directly to the computer

What DeviceOK/browser can help check
  • Test many downstream peripherals independently
  • Show whether individual browser-level devices work through the dock
What this browser page cannot prove
  • Measure dock power delivery
  • Read Thunderbolt link health
  • Inspect USB controller topology universally
