    I’d try boot the laptop normally with the adapter connected to your laptop, open up cmd > type ‘getmac’ and get the mac for the usb hub.

    Once you’ve got the mac, open up the fog server, create a new host and give it the mac address of the USB hub and also add ‘has_usb_nic=1’ to the kernel arguments.

    From there, you want to give it the capture/deploy tasks and with any luck you’ll see a similar kind of issue but it telling you to remove the hub, reconnect and hit enter before continuing on with the process - maybe go through a dumb switch to ensure it gets network connectivity almost instantly once it’s plugged in again.

      Similar problem noted here:

      Try usbcore.old_scheme_first=1 as kernel argument

            @JGeear What if you use both arguments together? (seperate them with a space)

              @Quazz I just tried both arguments on a surface pro 4. As long as you put

              usbcore.old_scheme_first=1
              

              before

              has_usb_nic=1
              

              separated by a space like you said, it works with no errors.

              Like open source community computing? Why not do it for a good cause?

                  I purchased a Dell USB 3.0 to Ethernet adapter with PXE boot. It worked perfectly!

                      Hi @cool1107cm ,
                      Much has changed in the way of Surface imaging for me. At the time of this post, I was able to image using these kernel arguments with a USB NIC on a Surface Pro 4 . However, as time passed, a number of other variables have come out of the woodwork to prevent the use of FOG on Surface Pro’s for me. I have reverted to manually installing Windows. I believe for a while I was working with @Sebastian-Roth and/or @george1421 on getting this to work. If you have a surface pro/ usb nic issue, I would highly recommend starting a new thread. Perhaps someone has come up with a solution since the time of this post.

                      Sorry I couldn’t be much more help. For the record, I used the Host Kernel Argument box on the host information page for the particular host on the web GUI and added these arguments in the order I specified separated by a single space.

                      Like open source community computing? Why not do it for a good cause?
