Yes, that is correct that I am running 4 sticks on one Gekko hub on ports 2, 5, 7 &4. I have 3 sticks on the 2nd Gekko hub using ports 2, 7 & 4.

The one stick I am having the issues with has never really been stable, it will always run for a while, but it slowly ticks down to zero eventually.  While it is doing this the hash rate suffers.  I will get back to working with it, just life is really busy right now with travel for work.  The other 7 sticks just run at 540MHz without any issues.  I would have to constantly go un-plug and re-plug this problem stick in.

Right. Not a solution but you could automate the usb reset with something like this: https://github.com/ralight/usb-reset

Just run it on a cron every couple of hours or so. Or you could monitor the miner with the API and reset it when it starts going down or gets to zero hashes.
