Review on 🔌 WAVLINK 8K Thunderbolt 3 Dock with 60W Power Delivery Charging, Dual 4K@60Hz & Single 8K@30Hz Display, Thunderbolt 3 Port up to 40Gbps, 2X DP 1.4, 3 USB 10Gbps, 2 USB3.0, LAN - Compatible with 2016+ MacBook Pro & PC by Vincent Blitz

Can successfully use two external monitors with MacBook Pro and XPS 13 9380, but there are two significant troublesome issues: 1) When the ethernet port is connected to the network, and then the laptop disconnects from the Thunderbolt port while the dock remains powered on, causing an issue where traffic from the dock disconnects the entire network. This is a common problem with other similar Thunderbolt Power Delivery docks and dongles. Turning off the dock or unplugging the ethernet cable from the dock when not in use is not an adequate defense against this issue. 2) On XPS 13 9380, Thunderbolt charging works on cold boot, but if the Thunderbolt port is disabled or the laptop is asleep, the only way to recharge it is to turn off the laptop completely and then perform a cold boot ( requires a full power cycle, rebooting won't work). Tested with multiple Dell battery settings. The standard charger always charges the laptop, but only sometimes with UTD23. Attempted to change the BIOS setting of the Thunderbolt adapter to "No Security" and also unsuccessfully set UTD23 as approved in the Thunderbolt Control Center. examined. These issues remove the advertised convenience of Thunderbolt 3. Namely, the demand for a hot-pluggable single-port docking solution is not met in terms of Ethernet or power reliability. then the only way to recharge it is to turn the laptop off completely and then do a cold boot (requires a full power cycle, reboot doesn't work).
