hi
a relative of mine has an old armada e300 laptop.
it has only one usb port so i bought for him a 1to4 usb splitter.
the problem is he has on this splitter 3 devices a printer(that has a power supply) a usb router for the broadband, and a logitech web cam.
now when he tries to start the video in his skype, the router stops working and the connection is closed. can it be that the two devices conflict? can it be the usb 1.1 can't handle this? can it be a poewr problem that can be solved with a powered usb splitter? what is the max current of a single usb port?
thanks
