    Class ID with Multiple Docking Stations


    Hi,


    We use the class ID so we can assign various options on our dhcp scopes. The desktops are fine as they dont move about. The laptops are obviously mobile and they attach to different docking stations a people move about. When you set the class id on the laptop initially and use the wildcard * everything is ok. As people plug into the usb dock, the dock has its own and this becomes a new network card. This new network card doesnt have the class id configured on it and it has to be done manually so people can access the network. This is obviously a really bad idea with people moving about. Is there any way to force all network cards to be included in the class id? We use windows 7 and 10 at the moment.


    I know this sounds a bit of a woolley description but its the only thing I can think of.


    Anyone have any ideas?


    Cheers

    :)

    1. I cannot connect to home Wi-Fi off the docking station but not on docking station.

    3. Other devices connected to home Wi-Fi has no issue.
    4. What steps can i take to resolve the issue other than updating Wi-Fi adapter driver?

    DVI not working on extended monitor with Surface Book docking station

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.


    • Make sure the power light for the docking station is on

    • Make sure the monitor is getting power

    • Make sure the cable is connected properly to the monitor

    • Unplug and reconnect the Mini-DVI adapter on the back of your docking station

    • Try flipping the connector for the adapter over (turns out some adapters can go in upside-down)

    • Take the Surface out of the docking station then put it back in


    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.
