Inspire Troubleshooting Connection

I find it hard to believe it is a power issue since I have 9 other items plugged in all at the same time powered over usb with no issues, especially since the inspire only requires 5 watts. My current power supply is a 1600 watt corsair AX1600i 80+ titanium. To answer your question, yes if I plug the inspire into the battery bank with the data cable into the pc it works. On the flip side, my pc powers on the inspire with no issue, it just won’t have a connection. At this point I have submitted…

That might help you sort it out. Sounds like some systems don’t like powering the Inspire directly. Perhaps try with a power bank or charger brick.

Let it boot, and it should be visible as a WiFi AP. Connect the PC to it and see if it works. If so, you might just need a cable that splits power and data. It could also be a hardware issue with the scanner or possibly the cable.
