To answer the last reviewer. It is not D-Links fault. I made exactly the same mistake. After redecorating I pluged a 12v to 5v on another HUB and it caught fire. I was furious too. Since then, I have labled all my cables at the tip. I have 4 of these. They really look good and easy to use. I had one problem with connecting to a harddisc. It kept disconnecting continuesly. I am not sure why, but you might expect that it may fail with some devices.
Otherwise it is well worth the price.

Reviewed by John. Review Posted 15/02/2007
Excellent! 2 minutes to plug it in and it works! What more can I say - it does what it says on the box. I'm using it with a Dabs Value 4 port PCI USB card, did one reboot & all plugins work fine at full speed. This PC lark is getting too simple!

Damn it stopped working

after decorating my study I accidentally connected it up to a 430V AC supply and it started smoking. Surely D-link should have anticipated this kind of thing and taken appropriate action. ie not sold it to a dummy

unexciting but effective

Does what it says on the tin.
Plugged it in and my XP machine detected it straight away.
If I were to be critical, the LEDs are pretty bright and the power one can make the others look like there are items connected on the other ports when there aren't

Took it out of the box and plugged it in - off it went. Doesn't list Vista in the blurb, but works fine.

Rob just by the fact that you have a room in your house called the study indicates that probably the archetypal Tim Nice But Dim and are best staying away from electrical items. Obviously you have learnt a lesson, which in life is a good thing, if you plug the wrong psu into something it blows up. Actually you indicate the fact the you are an upper class twit in another way, anyone else would have returned the item feigning innocence to the exact method of the items demise and requesting a new one, instead of posting an item on the retailers webs site admitting the you blew it up. Hey ho. I have the 8 hole version and as Tim, sorry Rob says it comes with a power supply which is nice and as some other inventive soul pointed out it does what it says on the tin, actually I am running a sweep as to how many times that hackneyed saying has been used in the reviews on this web site, I’m saying 1,789,643.

USB Power
Reviewed by . Review Posted 30/11/2008
The hub needs power , as many USB devices draw 5V DC , if you plug four of these into a hub with no power problems occur as the one USB port cant power all four devices,hence the need for a separate power supply,
