Add a Hub to the known Hub list

You can use one of two methods to manually add a Hub to the known Hubs list:

The Hubs can be on the same network as your computer, or on a different network.

Right-click Hub menu option

When you use this method, a duplicate connection for this Hub is made until you disable the Autofind Hubs feature in the Preferences dialog.

  1. Open the AnywhereUSB Manager.
  2. Right-click on a Hub name in the AnywhereUSB Manager. A short cut menu displays.
  3. Click Add to Known Hubs. The Hub is added to the known hubs list.

  4. To ensure that you don't have a duplicate connection for this Hub, you should navigate to File > Preferences and disable the Autofind Hubs feature.
