Some of my peripherals, trackball inc. want to be connected to the netbook instead of settling for my hub. What do I HAVE to connect to the computer among CD drive, hard drive, printer, keyboard, trackball and others? I have an ASUS eee pc 1000h

Try following tips:
Try to connect your keyboard and mouse directly to your laptop's USB ports (instead of using the USB hub) and see if they still freeze.
OR
It sounds like you're using an unpowered hub, which in my experience tends to cause most common errors with USB peripherals. It's definitely not recommended to connect any USB devices which aren't supplied with a power adapter (for instance some 2.5" external HDs and those small photo printers). These sort of devices should be connected directly to your laptop at all times.
You could also consider buying a powered hub, i.e. an USB hub which draws its power from a separate power adapter (and not your single laptop USB port).

if it doesn't work you can try this..

Click Start, and type device manager in the Start Search box.
Click Device Manager in the Programs list.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click Continue.
In the Device Manager dialog box, expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
Right-click USB Root Hub and then click Properties.
In the USB Root Hub Properties dialog box, click the Power Management tab.
Remove the check from the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for each USB Root Hub listed in the Device Manager.

Under Power settings, check the 'USB settings' -> 'USB selective suspend settings' and make sure it is disabled.
Check Thumbnail, highlighted: Open Device manager, Double click on Universal Serial Bus controller at the bottom, Double Click USB Root Hub, Click Power Management on top right, Uncheck Allow Power...
Hope it works for you.

USB Hubs are generally a bad idea for big USB devices

for big devices like printers and scanners it is generally rule of thumb to connect them directly to the USB port as USB Hubs share the voltage over many ports and data can be lost if multiple peripherals are using the one port

You may need to go into the computer settings and find the mouse settings and do the "test" functions.
You may need to restart your computer with the mouse already connected and see if that helps.

Q: Troubleshooting: Basic Mouse/Trackball Problems This article covers some common reasons why a Logitech mouse may cease to function.

This article applies to the following products:
All Logitech mice/trackballs
Cause:
There are a number of reasons why a mouse or trackball may suddenly stop working. These include the following:

• defective hardware
• system configuration changes
• wireless detection issues
• hardware connection failures

Solution:
It is possible that the mouse or trackball has failed. A failed unit can be described as a product that works for a period of time then suddenly stops working. Verify that you have not made any changes to the system that might coincide with the failure of the product. For example, if you moved the connection of the device to another port to add another device to the system or if you added new software or made other system changes. Also, verify the device has not become disconnected from the system by checking to see the device is correctly connected. Once you have verified the above potential causes for failure, proceed to the following steps.
1. Wireless Detection Issues
If you are using a wireless mouse or trackball, you should first check to see if you have a connection issue. Please see Knowledge Base article 970 for information on diagnosing and resolving detection issues.
2. Port Connection Issues
If you have concluded that the issue is not due to a detection issue and the pointing device has just stopped working, try the device in another port. If you were using it on the PS/2 port, try moving it to the USB port if you mouse supports it. If you have another USB port, try that other port. If you were connected through a hub, try connecting directly to the system ports to verify the hub has not failed.
3. If the device doesn't work on a second port, try it on a second system, if possible. If it fails on a second system, then the device probably is defective. You may also want to try a second mouse in the same port that the failed mouse was using.
4. If the second mouse does not function in the same port, verify the system port has not failed. Contact the system manufacture for more information on the status of the system port.
5. If either the mouse fails on a second system or the second mouse works in the same port, then you know the Logitech mouse is defective. If this is the case, please contact to inquire about a warranty replacement.

yes, you can. I have my printer connect to my hub and my desktop and I can print from my laptop wirelessly.
You will need your all in one connected via a printer or USB cable to a computer AND also connected to your hub. Then, go to the computer that is connected through a cable to the all in one. Your all in one should have some way to configure its IP address. I have my printer configured as 192.168.1.4 and it's plugged into the 4th port of my hub. Check if this works.

Power Cycle it sequentially. Means to says that it has to be in order. Once you turn off everything... Make sure to turn on the first connection from the wall first, and then the next... and then the next...

Modem, Router, Hub, PC.

Wait 10-15 secs interval on each peripheral before turning on the next.

Thanks.

You need to pair the device with the other peripherals or PC connection to make it work.

And where exactly are you trying to connect it? There could be compatibility issues here.

This is a common problem with many USB devices. Most will work on hub but some are designed specifically not to. The biggest offenders in this category are Palm Pilots/Pocket PCs and wireless peripherals. They do this because they consume a great deal of the USB bandwidth and splitting it would make everything connected to the hub have connectivity problems. If you really need an extra USB port or two on a laptop, they do make a PCMCIA->USB card as shown here: http://www.buyextras.com/syusb202pcca.html?gclid=CN_JsfLGno4CFR3NgAodIRRvTg

what can happen is that the voltage supplied to the usb port is not enough to power the recorder to transfer data, assuming you have tried other usb ports, and tried leaving other connected peripherals out connected to a usb port, it is always better to use a mains powered usb hub when connecting things like mp3 players and digital recorders as some motherboards, especially low powered units struggle with some peripherals.
