I don't have USB hub in use, all my devices can be powered with max_usb_current=1 in /boot/config.txt

I've noticed that even with the max_usb_current=1 being set I get the rainbows on the pi, so it must not have enough power, this is when I try to stream HD videos over the wifi... I'll have to try to pick up a newer usb hub that has a better power supply on it... It would seem because the T4U is USB 3.0 it may require more power than 1 amp, Looks like some of the usb 3.0 hubs have 3.6 amps per port, which should be more than enough to power the adapter. Also when they finally do release a pi with USB 3.0 I'll be ready to buy it.
