Hi all,

i have problem with three (and more) USB BT dongles (all are the same, 
CSR-based) and 4-port USB-2.0 HUB.

When i attach one USB dongle alone, everything is good (hci0 is up and 
running). When i attach the second dongle (after the first), still is 
everything OK (hci0 and hci1 are up and running).
But when i attach third (or fourth) dongle, this does not work.

I tried attaching all dongles differently but every time the third (or fourth) 
dongle is not OK and dmesg says:
#dmesg
hci_usb_intr_rx_submit: hci2 intr rx submit failed urb cd55b674 err -28

If i have attached all four dongles only the first two are OK, if i manualy 
change its state to "DOWN" and next two to "UP", now i have also hci2 and 
hci3 working (but never all three or more along).

If i have state for the first two dongles "UP" and trying setting up next two 
dongles "UP" also, then i get message:
# hciconfig hci2 up
"Can't init device hci2: Input/output error (5)"

I also tried another USB-2.0 HUB, but everything is the same - nothing 
happens.

When i attach two dongles and second USB HUB (with one or more dongle 
attached) into first USB HUB, everything is OK. Now i have all three or four 
dongles working, but this isn't good solution.

If i attach two dongles, one printer and one mouse into this (or my second) 
USB HUB, evereything is good and all devices are working, so these HUBs are 
good.

I tried this procedure on four different computers (3x PC, 1x Laptop - all 
with linux-2.6.x with distros Gentoo, SUSE and Debian), but still nothing 
happens.

Please, is there any way how to run more than two USB BT dongles attached to 
one 4-port USB-2.0 HUB?

Thank for any idea

hi Petr,

I was realising the same problem but in case of USB-Serial
converter. The solution for me was to remove ehci-hcd and
using the full speed uhci-hcd driver only. I think the lower
12MB/s speed  can not be a problem for BT.

Good luck!
