is there a usb hub that allows me to connect and disconnect without screwing up windows

[RichardFerraro]

I have usb hubs that have switches on each port that switch the power (which I don't use for my teensy)
I have 4 teensy 4.0's connected
Because I can't correctly select which port to output to, It is a pain plugging in and out 3 usb connectors to get 1 correctly uploaded to.

It would be easier to have a switch. I built one that disconnects/connects the two signal usb wires, but Windows becomes very unhappy.

Sabrent sells a four port USB 3.0 hub that has buttons on the top to control disconnect and reconnecting of that device. Not sure if Windows will go crazy but Linux does not.

These switches switch power and my teensies are not powered by the usb so they don't work for me.
thanks,
Richard

Didn't you already solve this problem by updating to the latest Teensyduino beta, in the other thread?

 

[DrItanium]

Ah! I missed the statement in the parens. Ignore my idea.

This is the other thread. I'm confused, what is the question?

 

[RichardFerraro]

Yes, the problem was solved using the latest Teensyduino beta. This was a more generic question of usb ports and windows

You are looking for a controlled USB hubs such as https://acroname.com/. These USB hubs can be remotely controlled to connect/disconnect power & data lines. We use them for device testing at work. I think there are a few others too.
