Advantages: Fast USB 2 Hub, Ports well spaced out Disadvantages: Only for Desktop PC's really, Must have adequate PSU
It should first be stated that this product is intended for use with a desktop computer and indeed it would only be practical to use it in such a manner.
The hub comes with an AC adapter which has a good length cable to reach the mains socket. A USB cable is also included to connect the hub to your computer. The hubs cannot function without the AC power.
There is nothing more frustrating than ports or sockets being too close together, meaning that large or bulky adapters or plugs can't fit in next to each other. This problem is avoided by the Belkin 7-porthub as the ports are well spaced out with four on one side and three on the other. There is an indicator light for each port to indicate whether it is working or not (on or off). There is no switch to turn off the hub - this would have to be done by disconnecting it from ...
Advantages: Good price, nice appearance, does the job! Disadvantages: Slight stability issue
We all have experienced having more desktop gadgets than USBports, and when this experience fell to me I was landed with the task of searching for a reliable USBhub. The first one I bought was from a pound shop and was not reliable, and to be honest, was a waste of money as it did not have enough power to supply four attachments nor was it stable - the slightest nudge was enough to disconnect a USB device. So then I decided to visit Amazon and scrolled through the available products which was when I came across the TrustEasyConnect.
Price
-----------
Whilst it was obvious to me that the TrustEasyConnect was significantly more than the very cheap (but useless) USBhubs, I still felt it offered excellent value for money as it was from a manufacturer I had actually heard of and seemed to be of a good quality. I paid £9.49 for it ...
Advantages: It works - extra power boost and plug and play! Disadvantages: Not suitable for seriously high drain usb connectivity
OK, so I admit it, i'm a geek, happy now? Right, so my laptop recently decided that one of it's USBports wouldn't work, so it gave up, completely and since most of my gadgets are USBconnections I had big trouble. With only 2USB2ports I had to keep taking things out and putting them back in again, my external keyboard had a fit every time I plugged it back in again and all sorts of curse words came out of my mouth.
Then along came this little beauty. The problem with many USBhubs is they have no power and so multiple plug ins are being powered from the single laptop USBport and this slows things down. Well the power through this little device sorts that out immediately. It has 7ports, and as long as you are clever and keep devices not in use turned off it minimises any problems, I currently have four working off mine ...
