Hi,
So I recently received the rk3588 upgrade, and I am now able to plug an external monitor.
I noticed that each time I plug a USB-C hub (mouse + keyboard), the wifi interface consistently resets, and once it gets back up the wifi is very slow (wavemon show 5+% of failed TX and it goes from 150mbps without the hub to <50mbps).
I tried multiple hubs and it always have the same behavior, has anyone else experienced this? Let me know if there is more info that I should provide.
Thanks!
I also realized the USC-C PD port does not seem to work at all with my hub.
Here is the dmesg output of plugging the hub on the non-PD port (wifi resets) then trying to plug it on the USB-C PD port:

Which hub is it? Is it a powered hub or does the Pocket have to power it?
It is a limitation of the current firmware that the USB-C PD port only works for self-powered hubs. This is so that USB-C PD hubs like monitors can charge the Pocket on that port while providing USB hub functionality at the same time.
The pocket has to power it (UGREEN Revodok Pro 106), that’s good to know I wasn’t aware.
I guess It does not explain why when plugged on the non-PD port, everything seems to reset (RP2040, wifi, keyboard…, for the wifi I literally see it being disconnected/reconnecting and wavemon complaining that the interface does not exist anymore)?
I ordered a self-powered KVM switch, but it only has USB-A input so I was planning to plug it through the USB-C hub, I guess it won’t make a difference.
There is another hub inside Reform. It seems standard behavior that when devices are plugged in the hub sometimes disconnects and reconnects all devices. This is probably related to power budgeting - as in the OS figuring out how to power all the connected devices, and possibly disconnecting the devices to re-negotiate the power delivered.
But you also have this which suggests something about the USB setup is bad. Maybe trying different hub would be worthwhile if this is a port on the external hub.
