I haven’t tried a Yoga yet but I’ve had good luck with this low powered usb adaptor with the new Dell tablets.

We have that issue too, but its separate. Our’s presents itself with our pre-boot authentication with our encryption product. Sometimes you can boot up and the adapter isn’t there, other times it works fine. We have found sometimes you have to shut down entirely to get it to come up.

It doesn’t detect the adapter at all. I have to unplug and plug it back in (sometimes several times) before I can see the network adapter show up after a reboot.

Its easy to test, build a machine, after it completes the setup windows and configmgr step and reboots into Windows, hit F8 and see if you get an IP. Wait 2-3 minutes and check again if you don’t. The issue is the NIC doesn’t initialize in time after that first reboot into Windows.

Happens on the ThinkPad adapter too. Only happens on win7 not win8. We have a ticket open with Lenovo on it. There is a TechNet thread on it too. -----Original Message----- From: Klish, Brian [[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> ] Sent: Friday, July 11, 2014 08:33 PM Eastern Standard Time To: '[email protected]' Subject: [MDT-OSD] Thinkpad Yoga deployment with Startech USB-to-Ethernet Months ago I purchased a Startech USB-to-Ethernet dongle because people were saying it worked well for imaging. Driver is inbox and just works with WinPE. I successfully imaged a Dell Venue tablet without any issues and thought I’d be able to use it on our Thinkpad Yoga’s when we got them in. Well they’re in and while it works ok at the start of the deployment it seems to lose it when you reboot. The deployment gets stuck saying it can’t connect to deployment share after the first reboot.
