Go figure. It won't recognize my keyboard anymore (note: it used to)so I have to plug it directly. The hub worked for a couple weeks I think, but have had numerous problems, enough to render it useless to me. I have to plug it directly in the desktop. I also get that caps lock thing going on. It never recognized the DLink Wireless adapter, same manufacturer. The HP Photosmart printer still works, though. Is this just a Dlink hub issue or DLink products in general because I have the wireless adapter and a wireless router.
While this hub installed easily and works without much interaction, I've found that there are many USB products that will only work when plugged directly into the computer (and fail completely when plugged into this hub). Some examples are the Microsft wireless optical mouse (which is the whole reason I bought this hub), my HP writable DVD drive and an M-Audio audio interface. I'm not sure if this is the fault of D-Link or the other manufacturers, but there are enough products that will not work with it that I wonder about the compatibility of this hub.
I have had this for awhile and have not had any problems. I have a camera and some other things plugged into it. It is nice not having to worry about running out of USB connections.
Same problems as others. It doesn't even work with my Webcam (Intel PC Camera Pro). The machine hangs up while rebooting. I have to unplug it to reboot the machine and then plug it in. Guess I made a Bad choice when I bought it. Stay away from it.
As mentioned in other reviews, this hub caused my computer to hang on start up. To start up the computer using this hub, I would have to remove the hub from the USB port, start up the computer, then plug the hub and its power supply back into the computer. It also seemed to temporarily disable the adjacent USB port at times.
