Extra USB ports?

Hi all,
Is there any "recommended" USB hubs that work with the jogglers? I have a USB3 (blue port) hub which also has a USB 1 port. Whilst i don't ever expect the joggler to give me USB3. It doesn't detect my ubuntu USB stick when in the hub, but when i remove the hub it works? looking around there are some really small USB board only hubs https://www.retrocution.com/2020/01/15/ ... -projects/ which might work, if i end up replacing the wifi dongle for something a lot smaller, but i lose the antenna function.

I have only used pre usb 3 , four port hubs , it's been a while but for some reason I think that the image would only boot if in port 4 . Try on your usb 3 hub first and if no luck try an older one in port 4
What are you using your Joggler for out of interest? Currently using one as a Hamclock for Amateur radio.

just been ressurecting the joggler for Music playing. Running Ubuntu via external port. Recent heatsink upgrade has binned the plastic heastink abbhoration. so now running copper HS. Core 44deg, Temp1. 51C Temp2. 54deg Temp3 63Deg so not bad but better heat loss than plastic. I may revisit auxilary HS when i do the USB mod on wiki. just tiying with the idea of a better USB wifi dongle to improve and maybe release space for a USB nanohub ( if it works as i recall the USB is fussy on these). If i have to get external hub would be good to find out make / model of hub that works. My current USB3 hub, whilst capable of USB1, doesnt get "seen" and wont boot USB image of ubuntu
