Windows 10: Autopilot not working on devices with USB-C network adapter

Hi,


We have been using AutoPilot with varying success and I have noticed that when I use AutoPilot on my computer which has a USB-C network adapter and a USB-C docking station, the process fails.


Just wondering if this should work and I haven't configured our systems correctly or is there a known issue with using AutoPilot on USB-C network cards.


Also, I tried autopilot using wifi but this also didn't work, should this work too. Last I heard wifi was not great with AutoPilot.

:)
