Hello!
Someone who moved their z-stick gen 5 from the server?
I have my servers in a shed, with tubes in the ground to the house with network cable. Bought an adapter on eBay from USB to RJ45, sends the signal out to the house. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/cDsAAOSwstxVZuM2/s-l500.jpg Where I put a USB hub, and then the z-stick in it.
Everything works perfect for about 3-4 hours, then there will be delays on all units and the system collapses. After a while even stops InControl service on the server.
Have been tested with USB hub in the server, to RJ45 adapter, same results.
What I'm testing right now, is to double-feed with a Y-USB cable, so that the RJ45 adapter gets double the power. http://www.nevacell.com/nevacell/images/UTStarcom/Cable/YC150B/USBYCable.JPG
With the Z-stick in the house, everything works perfectly! No delays, everything works like clockwork. Until the entire system fails ... ;) When I run the z-stick in the shed, I get a little delay of a few units.
The system collapses whatever version of InControl. Problem seems be when you have converted the USB to RJ45.
Has anyone tried anything similar? When I really want to have the Z-stick inside the house instead.
Do not want to buy a usb network hub to test, then they are too expensive to test. Unfortunately, have no one to borrow either.
