"Incompatible Hub" when using SEH UTN Manager (network USB hub) about usbipd-win HOT 7 CLOSED

Seems like it! I might have another workaround outside of usbipd-win, but you can go ahead and close this issue.

Probably the (OEM) USB hub driver reporting incompatible location information for the device. Try to find the device in Device Manager and post a screenshot of this page:

Also, set the Device Manager to "By connection", and locate the hub that the device is connected to, like so:

Then, display the drivers of the hub, like so:

from usbipd-win.

Unfortunately I can't post screenshots as it's on a private network, but I can type contents:

Device Manager:

> UTN Host Controller
    > UTN Root Hub
        > USB Serial Converter
            > USB Serial Port (COM8)

USB Serial Converter properties (location definitely looks strange, as you suspected):

I don't know if they are compatible, but you could try to install the stock Microsoft hub drivers for "UTN Root Hub". Hopefully the "UTN Host Controller" (for which you definitely do need the OEM drivers) exposes the hub as a standard, generic hub. If so, replacing the drivers of the hub with the Microsoft ones will make the device work. If not, then there is nothing that can be done (as in that case it is, in fact, an incompatible hub).

I'll give that a shot when I'm back in the office next week

from usbipd-win.

Tried using a couple different generic USB Hub drivers, none of them seemed to work, Windows failed to load any drivers for the device other than sehutn.sys

from usbipd-win.

Then I'm afraid that device is not going to work with usbipd-win unless you can connect it to another (compatible) hub.
