So, quick bit of information for running the Elgato Facecam or the Elgato Cam Link 4K: it's going to stop working after the first time. To fix it, you can use the `usbreset` command to reset the device. It's annoying, but far less annoying than unplugging/replugging the device in. #linux #elgato

```
sudo usbreset "Elgato Facecam"
sudo usbreset "Cam Link 4K"
```

I have a mediatek wifi6 adapter that goes haywire once in a while - I can now usbreset it, instead of automatically unloading and reloading drivers (on ping loss) hoping it will unwedge it. ty for sharing.
