Using a keyboard and mouse via the Tablet USB

Hi

I have searched and tried to resolve this for myself before asking.

This is my first Android Tablet.

One of the first things I did was connect a mouse and keyboard individually via the micro usb dock on the tablet using an OTG cable, both the mouse and keyboard work.

As I wanted to use them together I first used a non-powered 4 x USB hub.

While the small led light lit on the USB hub, anything connected to it would not work.

I then purchased a powered 4 x USB hub, thinking this would resolve the issue.

I connected the mouse and keyboard the same way using the OTC cable but with no success, I can't connect and use a mouse and keyboard together using the powered USB hub.

What am I doing wrong??
 
I don't think the OTG can cope with more than one serial input.

You would be better going the blutooth route to have keyboard and mouse working simultaneously.
 
Thanks Davoid,

I feel stupid writing this but I hadn't realised I could use a blu-tooth mouse and keyboard at the same time.
 
hey bro ive also the same problem. when i connect a modem or external key board it hangs. activating blutooth hangs the device too. how can i get rid of it... looking forward for your help.
