Anecdotally, and I haven't done any serious testing of this, my work colleagues and I have noticed that on our 2017, 15 inch MacbookPros, wired Ethernet (either from a dongle, or a hub) is only reliable on the right hand side. One co-worker has realized he has to plug in his hub after boot, but before he logs in in order for the device to be recognized, if the hub is wired into his wall drop. There are obvious work-arounds to all these issues, but it's frustrating to have these sorts of problems on such an expensive machine.
- cmsparks 7y agoI have a similar issue with setting up my eGPU with Bootcamp. Apparently the macOS bootloader messes with the setup of a ton of devices so what I have to do is plug in USB C devices before boot, then plug in my thunderbolt devices in the bottom left port at a specific point during boot, then plug in USB-A devices after login. Anything else crashes the machine. Admittedly my use-case is niche, but I wouldn’t be surprised about similar things happening with other devices.
