I just bought the switch and hooked up a Windows laptop, a Mac Mini and and a Windows 11 desktop. I don't seem to be able to wake up the Windows machines using mouse/keyboard. I can do that only on the Mac though. Thanks.

@dbchan This could be a device or software setting, such as to allow devices to wake the PC or alternatively to not put certain USB devices (hub) to sleep when sleeping or hibernating. Alternatively, a setting in the UEFI/BIOS related to power management in such a way. Hibernation and sleep are different, and the fast boot option relies on the former as well.
Thanks, I was able to fix one of the machines by disallowing Windows to put the USB hub to sleep in Device Manager, and it works fine now.
Unfortunately I can't do the same in the work machine unless I have administrative access. Thanks for the help.
@dbchan Glad to hear it. Thanks for reporting back!
