No hub will work with the f5s, it will only recognize one of the devices in the hub.
I'd buy a powerline ethernet adapter and use the boxes ethernet, then use the usb port for recording.
Will most likely improve your experience as well.. As long as you don't buy cheaply.

agreed...only 1 usb device at a time supported by the Skybox range......powerline or Wifi repeater with a lan output are your only options
