StarTech.com DKT30CHPD USB-C Multiport Adapter with 4K HDMI - 2x USB-A Ports - 60W PD - Black

I did a test with this product for 3 months and it works very well on my Dell XPS 13. The Lan and HDMI does its job perfectly and I had no issues. Its a nice way to get a dock station for a small space. I like it. “I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.”

Simple little device that provides HDMI, ethernet and a couple USB3.0 ports. Download the drivers from StarTech's website (it's a little file), unzip, run the Mac installer pkg, restart, and it just works. On one of my Macs, after installing the drivers, the OS froze on bootup. But a quick "turn it off and on again" made that go away, and the device works flawlessly. On a Dell laptop, that same downloaded zip file had the Linux and Windows drivers, both of which worked without issue. The adapter can be used with or without the laptop's power passing through. With power connected, everything works, AND the laptop charges. Just be sure to disconnect the StarTech device, then either connect/disconnect power, and then reconnect to the laptop. If you remove power from the StarTech device while it's driving HDMI, the laptop will think external video is connected still, but nothing will show on the external monitor. So resetting the device, as noted, brings everything back. A removable or longer USB-C cord would be really great here, as having to run the network and HDMI cables right up to the laptop due to the short USB-C cable is a little ugly, but.... Let's face it, the device does what it is supposed to do. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

This adapter is small enough to travel with, but has all the features I need in the office. My Dell Ultrabook has its own power adapter, but I was happy to see that this adapter could charge it through the USB-C port as well, saving me from having to look at a second adapter. The Gigabit Ethernet port, HDMI and 2x USB3 are all I need, and I can't get over how small it is for all the features. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review

With two USB 3.0 ports, gigabit ethernet and HDMI, the USB-C multifunction adapter for laptops is like a mini docking station for users on the move! Whether you are travelling, visiting customer / client sites or just going to different work facilities the multifunction adapter has it all in a small for factor (fits in my hand). It does need a usb c power source which is not included but laptop or cell phone chargers will work just fine. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.

Just like the other reviewer said, it works great except that with a 2016 Macbook Pro 15" you need to reboot in order for the HDMI monitor connection to work. Otherwise it shows as connected on the Macbook but the external monitor screen is black. After a reboot it works fine. Charging works fine. And yes the USB-C cable from the dock could be another 2-4 feet longer as you need to keep the dock fairly close to the Macbook. StarTech - is this a driver issue? Have you looked into it?

I have an issue where the monitor connected to the HDMI port won't display after waking from sleep. I have a 2016 MacBook Pro and it shows the monitor is connected, but the screen stays black. The only way to get it to come back on is to reboot the machine. I've tested different cables and ports on the MBP, but nothing works.

Have been using successfully for close to a year but that will likely come to an end and it will be relegated to the pile of defunct technology because there are no drivers for Big Sur. I get a warning at each reboot that the drivers will not be compatible with future OS releases.

Unable to install in catalina OS!!! Plz, update file... no updates since 2018

Not compatible with Mac Os Big Sur Version 11.0.1.

New mac os has been released so long ago, but hasn't been updated. I am unable to use ethernet port. Update the driver is your duty!!
