Just got my USB ASICminer running on an Anker USB 3.0 hub using cgminer-nogpu v3.1.1.  So it can be done.  Here's my .bat file txt.

Code:
C:\Users\my name\Desktop\cgminer-3.1.1-windows\cgminer-nogpu.exe -o http://rr.btcmp.com:8332 -u XXX -p YYY --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -S \\.\COM3

It worked after repeatedly installing these drivers:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libwdi/files/zadig/
http://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx

Keep doing it until the "(COM3)" appears after the "Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge"

If "(COM3)" is not visible for 1 USB device, cgminer can't see it.

This is coming from an excited noob miner.   I DID IT!!!

Can't wait for my other 5 to come in the mail.
