Hey folks. It’s been a while since I’ve been back in a Mac (black and white MacBooks where my last) and I’m loving my M1 thus far. Unfortunately I’ve been having a bunch of connectivity issues with my M1 Air and its integration with docks. I use my MacBook primarily as a desktop and the it’s been a mix of not enough throughput for all my usb devices/hubs to dropped Ethernet connections and more. Is this a matter of a using a usb-c hub instead or a thunderbolt hub? Is there a reliable budget thunderbolt 3 hub out there that people trust (I switch between my work laptop and my MacBook at times)?
My hardware:
My MacBook Air
Anker USBC hub
Desk mounted 4 port usb hub
Direct Ethernet for Remote Desktop/gaming
Logi-connect dongle for Mx master keyboard and mouse
4k 55” monitor
Etc.
