Enttec Open DMX USB only sending 127 channels on Windows

I'm using windows 10 and the enttec Open DMX USB is only sending the first 127 channels. I've tried the default windows driver (possibly a arduino driver, not sure) and uninstalled that and installed drivers from https://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm. I've tried on two different windows PCs. However I plug the device into my Mac and it works perfectly so it isn't a HW issue. What drivers should I use or is there another setting I should change on Windows?

Thanks in advance.

I have 6 Enttec OpenDMX USB dongles, which I run on Windows XP, Windows 10 x64 and Mac. I use the driver downloaded from Enttec, and I've never had that problem.

I am having that issue currently also. I have completely uninstalled all the drivers and reinstalled them and still only sending channel 1-127. Any known fix to it?

I can successfully control a lamp on address 177 on Linux

[EDIT] tested on Windows too. No problems

I'm using it since a week and it's working fine, I'm using the full universe range, maybe check the page 142 in the manual - "parameters list" - or the frequency in the output settings, for me 30/32 Hz is the maximum stable rate.
