Wireless USB Ports?? NO MORE CABLE!

Guess this is why my change in my setup made my Touch Screen finally work, lol.

Which this change was to add a Powered USB2 hub off the side of the computer in the back of the SUV, then from that I plugged in my Active USB2.0 16 foot Extension to run to the Hub up front. Then the Liliput is plugged into this, and now the TS will work correctly. Before when I had the Active extension plugged directly into the computer, the TS would work and then not work, then not work at all, so it was a Nightmare. It now is working great like this. And I do use both hubs as powered, have to for that Lili to work correctly for me.

Bry, how/where do you have your shuttle mounted? I'm still pondering mounting spots in the burb.

Dudes,
My system fite perfectly under the Rear Passenger seat. I only have the one row of seats in the back of my car, and it is the older Body style, the Dennali's weren't changed until 2001. I folded the rear seat up and mounted all the wires under the carpet and actually had to take the seat out to beable to route the wires all correctly. Then I mounted the inverter under the Middle seat right beside the computer.

I will take some pics when I get a chance and put it up so that you can see, Pm me to remind me.

so your saying that your hub doesnt need 5v, just plug in the USB plug.....what hub are you using?

Honestly, I would rather run a power cable than a usb cable. I am putting my pc in the beck and most of the peripherals will be up front. It would be easier (at least in my case) to hook up a power distro block and use a regulator on each device then have to run 1 or more cables all the way to the back itll also make for a cleaner install as i wont have a ton of cables under my carpet.
