This is spooky because if you have a look on the Sirius observatory site at Yahoo.Groups I've just put in a message detailing exactly the same thing which has been happening to me.
Are you using ascom dome control?
I was and a few nights ago the USB dropping out went from never to once a night to every time a command was issued.
I think I may have the answer but I want to check it out before I make a firm commitment.
I went from using ascom dome control to POTH and the problem seemed to disappear. Maybe you can try this.
Had the same thing where suddenly USB ports on my hub were dropping out and then the whole hub.
The dome control had it's own direct connection to the laptop ie it's own USB port and not into the hub.
