usb 3 hub stopped working

After updating to El Capitan my unpowered usb 3 hub has stopped working.

It does not work with iPad sync or with usb flash drive. They do work when plugged directly into my Mac Mini.

Update...


Resetting both the NVRAM and SMC fixed the issue. However, I'm 99.9% sure I tried this originally and it did not work. After upgrading to 10.11.1 it seems to now be fine. It's possible I just didn't follow all the steps correctly a few weeks ago, or maybe the latest update in combination with the resets helped!
