Keyboard lights flashing when plugged into a USB port

If the lights on your keyboard are flashing when it is plugged into a USB port, but there is no response from the keyboard and the USB port on the keyboard is not working, there are a few potential causes:

1. Faulty USB connection: Try using a different USB cable or a different USB port on your computer to connect the keyboard. Sometimes the issue is with the cable or the specific USB port being used. If possible, try connecting the keyboard to another computer to see if it works there.

2. Power or firmware issue: It's possible that the keyboard is not receiving enough power or that there is a firmware issue. Try connecting the keyboard to a powered USB hub or a different power source, if available. Additionally, check the Das Keyboard website: https://www.daskeyboard.io/get-started/firmware/ for any firmware updates specific to your keyboard model.

3. Hardware malfunction: If none of the above steps work and the USB port on the keyboard is still not functioning properly, there may be a hardware malfunction with the keyboard. In this case, it is advisable to contact the keyboard manufacturer's support or consider replacing the keyboard if it's under warranty.
