Hi guys!
Had a few problems with my new MacBook Pro 2017 and curious if others had similar issues. This is what happened:
Setup

Monitor: Acer H277HU
Gen 2 cable working: USB-C cable 0,5m
Had a few problems with my new MacBook Pro 2017 and curious if others had similar issues. This is what happened:
- The monitor's (H277HU) usb-c cable did not work. Assume this was 3.1 gen 1. Works fine with MBP 2016 model.
- Bought a 3.1 gen 2 cable and it works for both power and image with same monitors.
- Worked fine until I tried USB hub functionality last week. Charges phone and gives power to external HDD, but no data transfered to MacBook.
- Tried with other monitors of same model and same issue. Once again no problem with MBP 2016 model.
