Again? How many times should I say that this hub supports only USB 1.0 speed? Please stop confusing people with a wrong descrption.

Yes, I too fell for this and sold it on craigslist within 2 hrs for $5 cash. It's only usb 2 compatible at 1.1 speed.

It sux, the powered part is only for the flashy lights, it only supports like one or two devices before it locks up.

You can get a 4 port one from Belkin or D-Link for about the same price...

$7 for 7 ports? Can you take away 3 ports and charge me $4?

the led lights are too irritating for me.

Thanks #1.

Shouldn't all 1.1 devices have gone the way of the dodo by now?

I want to express the same thing. Do not buy this product, it completely stopped working on me in less than 2 days.

I bought this. The lights are annoying and it's only 1 Skip.

A total POS. I installed this a couple of weeks ago and just threw it in the trash yesterday. Some of the time, my PC couldn't find the hub; most of the time, it couldn't find devices that were plugged into the hub. On a few occasions, it worked for some devices but stopped working randomly.

Back to name brands and paying a few dollars more for something that actually works when I need it to work. Ben, dump this one.

The majority of USB devices still don't work faster than USB 1 Get a grip.

so lame, what a rip off

I have three of these working on different computers.

The blinking light was really annoying so I pried the case apart, twisted the blinking LED with a pliers and replaced the top.

The glow is nice and I don't have any USB 2.0 for for the price they were fine.
