M1 MacBook Air charging problem

Hi.

I got a new adapter for my new MacBook.

However I've got the charging problem.

I bought two new adapter. Hyper Drive Duo Hub and Belkin USB-C to RJ-45 +USB-C adapter.

Because I need the SD card reader and RJ-45 Jack at Home.

As the same time, I use the USB-C connect my BenQ EW3270U 4K Display(With USB-C).


Problem, because the monitor not power enough to charge the MacBook. I need to connect to power brick.

Hyper Drive Duo Hub and Belkin USB-C to RJ-45 +USB-C adapter both can USB PD bypass.

However when I connect everything. The MacBook show {battery is not charging}.


So, I try difference combination.

Brick->Hyper Drive->MacBook {OK}

Brick->Belkin->MacBook {OK}

Brick->Belkin->Hyper Drive->MacBook [battery is not charging {Power source: Power adapter}]

(battery percentage keep dropping)


I can't not put the monitor to Belkin, because Belkin only bypass power. No Signal.

In my mind . I' m want something like this.

Brick ->Belkin->Hyper Drive Duo

RJ-45->Belkin->Hyper Drive Duo->MacBook Air

4K Display----->Hyper Drive Duo


Any suggest? Something Belkin/OWC/HP USB-C High-end DeskDock?

I got a HP EliteDesk USB-C Dock in office for HP Probook G7(Company Notebook). I can't try at this time.

If work. I can go eBay get some second hand dock.


Thanks

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.0

Thanks for recommendation.


But I got another question.

The Brydge Stone Pro look like not use display link.

Note: The new 2020 MacBook Air & 13-inch MacBook Pro equipped with the Apple M1 chip do not support multiple displays. Stone Pro can still be used for a 5K/60 Hz single display and Thunderbolt™ 3 speeds.

M1 MacBook only can output 1 External display. If I go to get an all new dock with this price.

I hope can support more than one External display.
