More information:

Mice work when connected to the hub. Only keyboard doesn't.
Some keyboards work with this hub, some 2.0 hubs work with this keyboard.
I have A LOT (really) of these keyboards/hubs, that's why I'm trying to
solve the problem without changing the hardware.

Do you guys think there is a way (even if you don't know wich) to make it
work without changing the hardware?

Thanks!!

Paulo.
