Weird powered USB hub problem

Okay, so I got a second powered USB 2.0 hub of a different manufacturer because I thought the first one I had was broken. Apparently, it's something I'm doing wrong or elsewhere.

I have both hubs plugged into the wall and computer. When I have my mouse and keyboard plugged into them, they come in and out. Every 30 seconds or so, my keyboard & mouse will freeze for a couple of seconds and then work again. These outages are sporadic.

Am I doing something wrong with these things?


Thanks for the help!
 
That tells me that you're having problems with the wall outlet.

Do you have a surge protector or UPS (uninterruptible power supply) that you could connect your computer to? The latter is better because, in addition to the battery backup (giving you time to shut down your system properly during a power outage), most UPSes available today have some form of voltage regulation that helps ensure you're receiving the proper amount of power throughout your system.
