I have a GA-EP43T-USB3 mobo. I have an extender and an USB hub, both USB3. When I use the hub alone or the extender alone, then the computer recognizes my USB3 pendrive. When I use the hub connected to the extender, then sometimes the pendrive is not recognized. USB2 devices always work properly, the problem is only with this USB3 pendrive. I can test it further with USB3 SSD and HDD too, if necessary. I don't get any message by the issue, the pendrive just isn't added to the list of the drives in Windows. I have not check yet whether it is recognized as something. The problem is not consistent, I mean when I unplug the hub and plug it again, it usually starts to work properly. Another issue that sometimes the hub automatically disconnects and reconnects according to the logs, and I can corfirm that, the Windows plays sometimes the disconnect/reconnect sounds without apparent reason. The same hub with the same extender worked properly with a new mobo, but I did not test it too much. I suspect that the signal/noise ratio is not that good by this old mobo, and that's the cause of the different behavior by the two mobos, but I am not sure, I am certainly not an expert of the topic. Any idea how to fix it, or whether this is fixable at all?
USB3 pendrive is not always recognized by the usage of both HUB and extender

Is it a powered hub? If it is, you can't fix it, you are just running into an issue when using long runs of USB cable. If it's not a powered hub, try a powered hub, it may help. USB devices start to not work properly when cable get to about 8 feet or so.

The way you put in your reply is the correct way. You only will pick a solution if you actually select "pick as solution". I think the board just calls a post "solutions".
