Is it possible, that this phenomenon stems from the fact, that the router does not provide enough power for an external 2,5" HDD and the soundcard? If I change the cable or if I plug inbetween a non-active HUB, the sound quality changes!

Or is it some real interference (in the physical sense) with the other usb device (hdd)?

How sensitive is the ASUS on USB-Port-position or the insertion of a hub?
hehe, yeah, could be a power problem.
I didn't thought that the soundcard would draw that much power.
The router has slightly less amps available on the usb ports than a real pc, that's why I also use a powered usb hub

Sorry, my German is a bit poor, that's why we sort of switched to english.
Reading German is ok, but I'm terrible at writing it
