I read that in some cases it is indeed the difference between voltages of the USB ports but if you have a laptop the voltages are almost always the same on all ports which is why it makes sense that only an external USB hub would work.

Good luck and let me know if it works for you too!
Thank you!!!! I too, was using a laptop and the problem was driving me insane! I tried EVERYTHING, to no avail. In desperation I searched the internet and then found this thread, as a last ditch attempt (before I ditched the reader), I found your solution here. I plugged in a hub, connected my Kobo to that and voila!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
