Title: USB HUB for OBI 1022
Post by: ooj32 on July 20, 2020, 02:42:14 PM
Can you use a USB Hub for an OBI 1022?  I was wanting to hook up a headset and a wifi usb.

No. The usb port is for use with a flash drive to add display backgrounds and screensavers.

The "No" part of that answer is possibly correct but the reason given in the second part is certainly not. The USB port of an OBi1022 can also accept an Obihai branded Wi-Fi or Bluetooth adaptor.

I forgot to mention that. I guess I was tired at the time of my reply.
