[USB] USB Hubs

[Antiloop]

Nobody seemed to know that a USB Hub does work, until Justwords tried it with a generic usb hub.

The idea is to create in the near future a database with reported working and non working devices

please report here if you have a device that WORKS or does NOT WORK

please also report if you have upgraded and the device stays working or not

your post should look like this: (this is an actually working product I own)

Brandname: Unex

note: don't use power supply with this usb hub, usb devices seem to halt when doing this.

I knew it worked, just a question, is a usb hub really a unit that need to be installed? I didn't know it used any drivers and thought it was kind of a "passive" unit. I may be wrong though.

i don't know much about usb, the thing i know is that some 'hubs' did not seem to work, because they had other hardware onboard (serial rs232 etc..)

It is bought through Nomatica, so I am assuming this is the exact hub:
URL To product: http://www.nomatica.co.uk/index.asp?chargement=/informatique/usbhub11EN.htm

CK0006 indicates it is rebranded from this product:
URL To manufacturer: http://www.sanxi.com.cn/en

The product pictures do not match 100%, though they do look the same except colours.
