I have no signal to the VGA monitor (the monitor is a bit older). The other connections work. However, I haven't connected the power supply to the HUB because I don't have a cable for it yet. Can this be due to the monitor on the hub or the unconnected power supply?

Personally, I have no problems with VGA even without a separate power supply for the HUB (the laptop supplies the HUB with power), so in your case it must be the cable or the monitor, or possibly a technical defect in the HUB. What is not possible, of course, is the simultaneous use of both monitor ports (HDMI and VGA), but this is then a limitation of the laptop and not of the HUB. Try connecting the cable and the monitor to another computer to check the correct functionality of both.

Does this HUB need a power supply?

No, this travel hub only needs to be connected to the notebook with the USB C cable. Of course, this consumes a little power. You can connect your charger to the hub so that your notebook is also charged.

I plan to use this Travel Hub with the Yoga 7i (14" | i7) which came with a 65W charging cable. Does it matter much that this Travel Hub can only output 45W? Or can it cause permanent damage to the hardware (battery life ...). I can imagine that it can affect the performance.

Probably not - TP will load more slowly. But I am not liable in any way for my statement! Good luck....

Hello, I bought this docking station to connect my notebook to external monitors. One of them has a VGA connection and the other one has VGA and HDMI connections. Unfortunately, connecting with the HDMI cable does not work at all. Does anyone have any idea what this could be? VGA is possible with both monitors, but the docking station only has a VGA connection. So the second monitor basically works and so do the various HDMI cables tested. I would be very grateful for an answer. Many thanks and best regards

Hi Faska, the first answer up here says that only 1 screen goes at a time. After a trial and error, I could not even plug in a VGA connector at the same time as an HDMI connector on this hub, there is physically no room. Do you really have the hub in use? Otherwise, the notebook also needs to be able to put out Thunderbolt signal first so that 2 screens can be addressed per USB-C port....

The hub only delivers 30Hz at 3840*2160. I have already updated the firmware. Does anyone have the same problem or a solution? With the same HDMI cable, my no-name hub for 20$ can deliver 60Hz. Tested with Lenovo Thinkpad 470 + Thinkpad 13 2nd Gen.

With a Lenovvo yoga 730-13 and with this hub, I could already only achieve 30Hz at 2560x1440. However, I have an HDMI cable that is not certified for HDMI 2. I thought it wouldn't work at 60Hz because of the cable. I have also installed the latest updates for the hub.
