Hi,

The USB standard say the cable can't bee longer than 5 meters. I have trie to make a simple big cable, without any electronics parts, with a very good cable, but I have problms with weak signal, so, I need a usb cable with +/-30 meters, and I canīt find any simple circuit in order to "regenerate" the lost signal.
If you can help me, I apreciate, a lot.
Thanks.

If i remember correctly, you can have up to 9 hub to hub connection... that make things a bit messy at the end huh?

10-15$ you have a workable PCI card with 6 USB ports.
