I have never owned or used a powered usb hub. Why have a 7 port hub if they don't work that well? I have about 15 feet to get to where it needs to be, then need to connect three usb devices. That just makes it much longer than 15 feet, more like 20 feet.
I need to find our camera and see how it works on this long 19 foot cable I put together.
I do have a PS2 keyboard. I can buy a 15 foot PS2 extension cable. Would that work ok?
I am running OpenCpn navigation program. Mostly the input is the GPS, the mouse will occasionally be moved, the keyboard much less than the mouse.
I have the LED mouse plugged into 19 feet of usb cable extensions and it is working great. The extensions are a real mix, one 6 foot usb 3.0 ext, two usb 2.0 cheapo extensions, a cheap 3$ mouse from amazon.
