Summary: What an improvement!
Review: I had an old USB 1.0 hub that was not activating some of my USB devices when I booted my system. I researched the available USB 2.0 hubs and selected the Adaptec XHub7. I am not sorry I did. It was a snap to set up on my Window XP Home Edition system. all I had to do was plug in the USB devices, provide power to it using the included power supply and every USB device connected with no hithches.

It also fits nicely on my crowded desk, and I have not any problems with it like the ones I had with my old USB 1.0 hub. I plan to purchase another one as my system expands.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally found one I like
Review: I have gone through a few USB 2.0 hubs and was really bitten by a Belkin model. I finally ran across this one and have stopped my search. This is a truly a wonderful device. I like the layout, making it very easy to plug in devices. I simultaneously plug in to it an illuminated keyboard, a wireless mouse, a microphone, a web camera and a Pocket PC cradle and I still have a couple of ports open to plug in my memory drive when needed. Everything has always worked as expected. And it even looks nice. I am back here buying another one.

Summary: It actually works all the time
Review: I have several USB routers
Belkin, D-Link...etc.
This is the only USB device that works all the time...
The other one...will run out of bandwidth, out of power, will not be compatible...

Summary: Great looking but has some issues
Review: I just got this for Xmas to replace my undersized Belkin 4 port hub and it looks great. It works fine for most of my peripherals but don't bother hooking up your Soundsticks to it. The music skips about once every 20-30 seconds. It also requires a powercord (adding to the already overflowing powerstrip) unlike the Belkin which will work w/ or w/o external power (in accordance with USB specs I may add). So, I have the soundsticks plugged in directly to my TiBook and then the hub in the other port to all of the other peripherals. I debated returning it but the blekins are not stackable and take up a greater horizontal footprint. Sometimes I just wish I could find one product that did what I needed...

Summary: works like a champ...
Review: Not much else to say... It connected as soon as it was pluged in, I've got all 7 ports full, and everything works every time (fast). It's the most attractive piece of hardware on my desk. Benchmarking software shows it to be as fast as advertised. I have no problem with plugging it into AC, as I'd rather not have a laptop power supply running my accesories. I'm buying more.

Summary: Look no further
Review: This is a great hub. Looks nice. Works flawlessly. I'm not sure if the manufacturer recommends it, but I stuck mine to my file cabinet using double sided tape. Now it's out of my way, but still close enough to plug in my portable stuff. USB 2.0 life is good...
