Hey Peet,

Just wanting to share an odd observation that has riddled our office for months. I had discovered that on especially newer machines that we've gotten, seem to have this weird quirk where only the front USB-c Port is helpful for connecting with monitors and the wireless ethernet. If folks use the back one it inconsistently connects to our monitors and almost never seems to connect wireless ethernet.

Somehow its been a magical silver bullet with weird connectivity issues around printing and monitors.

Just thought it interesting and you should know or maybe you already know.

The back port does seem to work for adapters in the few rare cases I've used it and charging.

WEIRD
