I’ve been having problems getting WiFi and a Camera to work at the same time over my old USB Hub. I’ve also had problems with heavy copying between flash drives on the hub, so decided to see if a new small hub might be better. I was at Frys and found an Inland Hub that looks exactly like the Inland hub linked from http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBone_Black_Accessories#USB_HUBS (the 4-Port USB Cable HUB) but when I connected it to my BBB I was not able to see any devices plugged into it, and the hub itself didn’t get listed by lsusb.
I connected the hub to my windows desktop and the camera to the hub and was able to stream video through the hub, so It seems the hub itself is working, just not with the most recent BBB/Angrstrom.
Here’s the results on both this new hub and the old one.
