Not enough USB ports

[korlinski]

I have a KDL37EX524BU.

I have just bought the Skype camera (1 USB port) and need to use wireless (1 x USB port).

Now I cannot record as I have run out of USB ports.

Any idea Sony? I have read I cannot use a hub, what should I do?

Hi, the only thing you can do is to swap devices when you need them. Do you use Skype all the time? Can't you just put the camera in when you need to use it?

Another thought....you could look into Powerline adapters for your internet, rather than wireless. It would cost more money to buy them, but they can be useful for other devices as well as the TV. This would then free up a USB port.

Good idea. However that would involve carving out another hole for the cable.

I have solved the problem. The hard drive uses a mini USB to USB cable.

I replaced the cable with a "y Cable". Purchased a female to female USB adapter, and pluged in a wifi bridge.

All works now
