Hello,
I am working on a project that involves sending and receiving serial data to/from two Arduino Uno 3’s and an Arduino Mega 2560. My laptop only has two USB ports, so I would have to use a USB hub to get enough ports- but I’ve had issues in the past with getting my laptop to recognize Arduinos that are attached to an external USB hub.
I’ve heard people mention that getting a USB hub that is powered externally could remedy the issue, though I’m not sure how it would. Has anyone had experience with sending and receiving serial data to/from an Arduino board plugged into a USB hub?
Any input or suggestion would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much.
