Where does the hub that does NOT have a separate power source get its
voltage from? What would cause a loss of voltage? See my post below...

Hello,

When you mean other ports, did you try other ports on your computer and not
on the hub?

If your hub is not powered, it can only draw a maximum of 100mA in total. So
if you have 4 devices on the hub, they are sharing the 100mA of power.
