722K and Sling Adapter

[nicmartim]

Quick question, I have a VIP722K with an EHD plugged into the rear USB. Can I put a USB hub back there and run both the EHD and the Sling Adapter? If it will work I have a powered USB 6-port hub so I assume I could also hook multiple EHDs up, right? Thanks!!

Yes, I do that...

722K's only support one EHD at a time.

Yeah, forgot about that. I have used a powered hub on both my 722 and then my Hopper. I had a sling adapter and EHD on the single rear USB on the 722. I have had the sling adapter, EHD, and for a time the OTA dongle on the hub with the Hopper. I have since moved the dongle to the second USB on the Hopper...

Ok, so w/ a 722K I can have both the Sling and the EHD on the hub, but not 2 EHD's?

Correct. You can have more than 1 EHD connected but only one at a time can be powered on.
