Is there an error after the warning? Did you find the root cause of the warning?

[accrine]

nope, no errors whatsoever. Just wsl can't see anything either as any other usb device

No, that was a dealbreaker for me so I’ve switched from windows + well to Ubuntu

Did you check the relevant logs? I really don't want to install another system

I tried pass through wifi dongle. Not working, same as above, WSL2 doesn't see any new usb device.

> usbipd.exe attach -w -b 7-4
usbipd: info: Using WSL distribution 'Debian' to attach; the device will be available in all WSL 2 distributions.
usbipd: info: Using IP address 172.29.112.1 to reach the host.

@marbaa does your WSL guest itself faciliates an own firewall with ufw or iptables?
My company applies a Group Policy which prevented local changes to the Windows firewall to be applied correctly..
Now it works out of the box.

No, don't have any firewall in WSL distro. The problem is mentioned here and in following posts. Windows Defender is treating WSL internal network as Public network.
