Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Hub F5U237v1 Product does not work. from Amazon.com Mine says "Rev. 1" between the model number F5U237 and the UPC, some of them do not have that. The port LEDs are only on when a device is connected to it. from Amazon.com Mine says "Rev. 1" between the model number F5U237 and the UPC, some of them do not have that. The port LEDs are only on when a device is connected to it. from Amazon.com Same thing occurred to me - I have a Dell 8400 running XPPro SP2 and an external USB Maxtor HDD - I was using all six USB ports that came with the Dell machine, however when I added the Belkin F5U237 Hub everything worked okay until I rebooted it - than Nothing but grief!!!!! I exchanged the Hub in hopes it was a defective as I really liked the two top plug in ports - same thing occured with the replacement - after some experimenting I removed all the USB connections from my machine (i.e. from Amazon.com I had my first F5U237V1 hub for 2.5 years and liked it enough I bought another for my Mother-in-law. My first hub died about two weeks ago. from Buy.com As in only plug in USB devices with their own independent power supplies. It works very well as a High-Speed USB 2.0 hub, but it fails miserably as a power supply for dependent hardware. I have two of these; models F5U237 v1 and v3. SUCCESSES: from Amazon.com Works like a charm. I lost the power adapter and had to buy a whole new one because it won't work without one. The new one I bought, Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Mobile Hub F5U701-BLK, had the same power adapter and was able to work without it, so now I've got both. The F5U701 is smaller and cuter, but it's also so light that it won't sit flat on the desk. from Amazon.com I purchased the Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Hub, Model # F5U307 on 11/12/2008 from Best Buy. It worked well until 2 weeks ago and then starting running Hot and shutting off. from Amazon.com This is my second Belkin Hi-speed USB 2 7-port Hub; I was obviously happy with the first one that still works after a few years flawlessly. From an hardware point of view this hub has never gave me any problem. from Amazon.com Great usb hub, gives you 7 ports extra, also it doesn't use the power from the tower, it uses own power adaptor. Belkin gives you lifetime warranty on the product. i already purchased before and now i got another one. from Amazon.com
