How long is your USB extender?  Is it just a long USB cable or is it a USB to Cat 5 extender?

My Cat 5 extender doesn't use a PSU - What make is the one you are using?  Do you have any power saving schemes running.  People have had problems when the USB port shuts down the power after a while. Does RB time-out when you are connected directly to the USB port using the supplied cable?
