I have a 2 ½ year old XP Home Edition and the tower only has 2 built in USB
ports, so I bought a D-Link 4 Port USB Hub to compensate.
One of those USB 2 ports is used up wholly for the modem that connects me
to the Internet via the ADSL modem, and the 2nd USB port is used to connect
up the D-Link 4 Port USB Hub so I can hook up my scanner, printer, webcam
and digital camera.
The only problem is that when I want to download pics from my digital camera
I have to UNPLUG the scanner, printer and webcam, leaving just the digital
camera plugged in. This sort of defeats the purpose of me buying the D-Link
4 Port USB Hub in the first place.
I went to the D-Link website thinking I might find some answers there, but
didn't. Now my "computer man" tells me I'll probably have to spend up to
$100 Australian dollars to get 4 USB hubs installed internally. It just
doesn't seem fair to me.
These D-Link 4 Port USB Hubs are reputed to be able to work faithfully, so
what is going wrong for me?
Any feedback would be appreciated. If I am in the wrong "Newsgroups" I
expect someone will tell me so, and direct me to the correct Newsgroups for
this problem.
