Doesn't stay connected and attached devices stop working

Purchased to connect a printer, scanner and label maker. All devices that do not require USB power supply. From day one this thing hasn't worked properly. I had to unplug it from my computer and then plug it back in to get the printer or scanner working as the label printer NEVER worked when connected to this hub. Mini USB connector for the cable that goes to the computer. free right out of the box and I have no idea why this thing has a plastic top that pops off as soon as you look at it…

Pros
  • Dimensions W x D x H - 3.25 x 2.75 x 0.75 (inches)
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Works for data hub but not suitable for charging.

This isn't the company's fault but I bought this product specifically to simultaneously charge my portable devices. As it turns out, USB hubs typically only charge up to 500mA (0.5A). This makes charging my devices very slow. For example, my iPad requires 2.1A and my Samsung 4S phone requires 1A for fast charging.

Pros

Cons
  • Fits

Poor quality is best for networking products

I purchased this item last October. I have purchased Tripp Lite products before and have been very happy with their quality. However, this USB hub is a different story. It worked fine when I first set it up, but then about a month later we had a power outage and when it was back on the hub it stopped working. I opened it up and it wasn't difficult to understand why. The solder joints and the processing on the board are very bad. Don't waste your time with this product. I hope they improve it in

Pros
  • Device Type - Mini USB 2.0, 4-Port Hub
Cons
  • No Automatic
