I had a similar issue with an HP all-in-one printer and ended up
switching to a different USB port and eventually worked.  I know some
come with different versions (2, 3, etc..) of USB ports so it might have
partly been that.  Although if it was plugged into one of them, and all
of a sudden stopped while plugged into same port, then sounds buggy to
me.  Maybe something in the BIOS or something turned off that port, or
something from MS.

Anyway, glad it's working and if using eth0 port, might work better
and/or faster.
