Hello,

I'm setting up a Home Assistant VM on my machine, and I'd like to connect a SkyConnect key to it.

The problem is that I don't have enough USB ports on my machine.
So I decided to use a usb hub.

ProxMox can see the hub, but it can't see the dongles connected to it.

Here is the usb list when i connect the SkyConnect dongle directly :
Bash:
root@stardust:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1a6e:089a Global Unichip Corp.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 10c4:ea60 Silicon Labs CP210x UART Bridge
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

And there is the result when I connect the dongle throught the hub :
Bash:
root@stardust:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1a6e:089a Global Unichip Corp.
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Thanks for your help
 
Do you see anything interesting in the output of dmesg after plugging in the hub and after plugging the dongle into the hub?

Have you verified that the hub works using some other device?
