What to do if all LEDs on both the RX unit and the TX unit of VADDIO Extreme USB 2.0 TX Extender are on, but the USB device does not operate correctly?

  First, disconnect the VADDIO Extender from the computer. Connect the USB device directly to the USB port on the computer. If the device still doesn’t operate properly, consult the user documentation for the device. Update your system BIOS, chipset, or USB Host controller drivers from your System/Motherboard manufacturer’s website. If the device operates properly when directly connected to the computer, connect another device (of a different type) to the Extender and then connect the Extender to the computer. If the second device does not operate, the Extender may be malfunctioning and you should contact technical support. If the second device operates properly, the first device may not be compatible with the Extender.

What does it mean if the Device LED is orange on the VADDIO Extreme USB 2.0 TX and the units are no longer functioning?

  An orange Device LED indicates an overcurrent condition. This occurs when the USB device draws more power than the USB specification allows (500mA). Power cycle the TX Unit to resolve this issue.

  The TX unit may be in suspend/standby mode, or no USB devices are attached to the TX unit. To resolve this, recover/resume the operating system from standby mode (refer to the PC’s operating system documentation) or attach a USB device to the system.

  Ensure the appropriate driver is installed on the computer operating system, or that the device uses UVC (universal video class) drivers. Install the required USB device driver on the computer before attaching the USB device to the TX unit. Consult your USB device documentation and power the USB device with the additional USB device manufacturer supplied power supply (if available).

How to fix VADDIO Extreme USB 2.0 TX Extender when link LEDs on the TX and RX units are off?
- J
  John Hill DDSAug 28, 2025
  The link LEDs are off because there is no connection between the TX and RX units. Check the Cat-5e connection and the cable, avoiding pull-through or EZ type RJ-45 connectors. Ensure the pin-outs use 568B straight through standard. Try connecting a short, known good patch cable between the TX and RX units. If this works, there is a Cat-5 cabling problem.

  The TX and RX units may not have the same firmware revision. To solve this, use a different TX / RX pair that has the same firmware revision or upgrade the TX /RX firmware. Contact technical support for assistance.

  Disconnect all USB devices from the TX unit. Disconnect the RX unit from the computer and the TX unit from the AC power adapter. Reconnect the RX unit to the computer and the TX unit to the AC power adapter. Then, check in the Universal Serial Bus controllers section of Device Manager to ensure that the RX unit is recognized as a “Generic USB Hub.”

What to do if all LEDs on the RX unit (PC-Host side) of VADDIO Extender are off?

  Diamond ColeSep 7, 2025
  The RX unit is not receiving enough power from the USB port. Ensure the USB connection between the RX unit and the host PC is properly installed, using a USB 2.0 rated cable with USB 2.0 signals. Try moving the USB connector to another USB port on the host PC, as some PCs have internal hubs and adequate power may not be available on every port.

Why are all the LEDs on the TX unit (device side) of VADDIO Extreme USB 2.0 TX off?
- S

  The TX unit is not receiving power from the AC Adapter. Ensure that the AC power adapter is properly connected to the TX unit. Also, check the viability of the AC electrical outlet and confirm that the TX unit’s power LED comes on when plugged into a working outlet.
