I get a strange feeling name doesn't matter much when it comes to hubs.
I have an old 10 Mbit 5 port with no name at all on it, and have never once had any sort of problem with it.

Usualy name brand dont matter when it comes to hubs considering hubs dont have any firmware or set up features to them. I have 2 linksys hub/switches and never once had a problem with any of them. Not to mention they run only about 40 a piece.

I don't know why you would want a hub, A switch cost about the same or with in $10 . and do the same job but 100 x better.
