AW: AW: AW: Strange behaviour of D-Link DUB-1312 USB 3.0 Adapters

["Schmid, Carsten" <Carsten_Schmid@mentor.com>]

Hi all,

we had a look at the adapters, and it's really a HW issue.
Nothing we can follow up here anymore.

Let's close it.

Thanks!

Best regards
Carsten

This points at a low level XHCI thing. Time to get Mathias involved.
