[Gumstix-users] Robovero R3277 USB HubCommander power behaviour

[Ken W. <ken...@ho...>]

Hi there
I'm having a basic issue with my Robovero. I'm trying to power a USB Wifi dongle off either of the A ports on the Robovero for use by an Overo COM. When a PC is connected to the mini-B port, the device gets power (it has a power LED), but when the mini-B is disconnected, the device loses power. Is this behaviour expected? It is important, because this is the only way I can SSH to the Overo while it can see the Robovero (the COM doesn't have Wifi itself). Any help greatly appreciated...
