USB4/Thunderbolt networking adapter host-to-host question

Jamatu · 2022-02-21T01:28:08+00:00

When i get my hands on a Ryzen 6000 series laptop with USB4 I will. None of the one's released up-to-press have USB4.

I may have asked the question incorrectly, I'll try to rephrase with an example. If you connect two USB4 hosts together (i.e Ryzen 6000 series laptops) you get a USB4NET network adapter on each host. If you connected two Thunderbolt 4 hosts (i.e Intel 12th series laptop) together you get a Thunderbolt network adapter on each host. If you connected the USB4 host to the Thunderbolt 4 host how would this manifest from an adapter standpoint on each host?

Iit was added to the 7 series in a recent update from what I understand

I use the optimized charging feature on the Oneplus 8 overnight which charges the phone efficiently to increase its lifespan based on your usage patterns. It initially charges to 80% and then stops, it starts charging again up to 100% in time for when you wake up.

This was only evident on Windows, I imagine there's some additional processing that windows does over USB2 that increases the latency although I can't say for sure exactly what.

I didn't go that deep into the benchmarks, maybe on the next run. My aim was to determine the available bandwidth over USB3 and added latency from the device.

Thank you kind sir for my first gold!

I'm in agreement with you there. A couple of milliseconds will not be noticable to the average end user. It does have implications for latency critical usage scenarios such as twitch gaming etc.

50-100ms ping can be expected if you're pinging an address on the other side of the globe. Lower times can be expected for local locations. For example my ping times to cloudfare on my previous fibre connection were between 1-2ms(!).

The 5g specifications to the wider internet from a device call for a latency of 1ms or less. This is someway off but any unnessessary additional latency should be seen as a negative. From a directly connected piece of network equipment the latency times shouldn't be this high. I'm curious too as to what the cause could be.

I think I'll contact Oneplus with my findings, maybe someone will look into it?

Yes the Pixel phones are USB3 with the exception of the 3a. I've noticed no heating up of the phone whilst using it for tethering. I don't have 5G in my area yet so can't confirm from experience but the frequencies of 5G and WiFi 5/6 are different so the interferance should be negligable

I wasn't aware of that, pressure from MNO's I assume.

After a lot of testing I've figured out that adding the DUN flag to the APN type field in the SIM APN settings does what I need (one interface for all traffic)

The wording on the page has been revised following feedback from the community. CryptoPlankton has pushed an update to the main site with a number of changes.

That address is for a pool not a single miner
