Question

edgeport/8 detects only 6 out of 8 ports.when installed in PC. what would be issue and solution

Answer 1

The only time I've seen this, it turned out to be bad ports on the unit. Have you removed and re-installed the driver per the following instructions?

Do you have another host to test this on?

If the behavior is seen on multiple hosts, the unit is likely in need of repair.

Answer 2

Thanks for the solution. I have tried the unit on my laptop and PC outcome of both is same.I have tried with Lastest driver also. It detects only 6 of 8 ports. One port it says unknown USB.

I have the another 16 port edgeport working in the same PC and laptop.

since the port under warranty , will digi provide the replacement?
