Most obnoxious USB hub ever:I wanted a powered USB hub, looked at the $60-$70 ones in the usual shops, and decided to get one from As there is one close to me, I dropped in earlier today.When they showed me their $11AUD 7 port hub, I decided to get 2. How could I miss out?Plugged it in and it works fine, but!!looks like these:?v=Ao5CA1kTNCk&feature=relatedIt will drive me mad. The flashing middle LED has nothing to do with the operation of the unit. Neither has the other 7 LEDs. They ain't status LEDs, just there to annoy the s**t out of you it seems.I either have to open it up, and snip out the LEDs, or mask the ports, and spray paint it black.Such a shame. The middle LED changes to all the colours of the rainbow, but at varying delays from about 100ms to 500ms.Anyone else experienced these animals?Cheers Don...-- Don McKenzieSite Map: Contact Page: Camera Page: More Damn Spam: Breakout, Prototype, Development, & Robotics Boards:Coupon Specials:
