Thanks for an answer, Christian! Adapter is getting hot sometimes indeed. Also my adapter is usb2.0 but it was on extender with another usb1.1 device. I plugged it into motherboards port directly but issue still continue to happens. I also tried reload host controller but it did not help. However I discovered strange behavior. Here is my scenario: 1. boot system 2. check device is displayed by 'lsusb' and 'lsusb -t' 3. unbind and bind root hub where device is plugged into 4. this time 'lsusb' does list device and 'lsusb -t' does not Is it ok? After unbind/bind device definitely is not working - there is led indicator and it is off. Should I 'enable' device after binding root hub with another command?
