Belkin Network USB Hub

The Belkin Network USB Hub provides a simple way for multiple users to share USB devices wirelessly. It's a must for any multiuser household.

Easy to set up and use ; can wirelessly network up to five devices at once ; generous support package

Some software firewalls impede communication (but Belkin provides step-by-step workarounds) ; not all USB devices are supported ; only Windows XP and Vista are supported so far

Belkin's Network USB hub connects your PC to USB devices over a Wi-Fi network, but tricks the PC into thinking it's making a direct USB connection to those devices. If your wireless router doesn't have a print/storage server built in, consider...

Review: Belkin Network USB Hub

By Cliff Joseph

Connect all your USB devices to all your computers

: Works as it should, sharing devices over network

: Router needs a spare network port

Lots of people buy USB hubs to add extra USB ports to their computers.

Belkin's Network USB Hub goes one step further: it can be connected to your entire home network, rather than to just a single computer. We tested the Network USB Hub on a PC-only network and on a network that had both Macs and PCs on it, and...

Belkin Network USB Hub

It's certainly convenient, if a little slow.

Belkin delivers a simple solution for sharing your USB devices over the network. It's extremely easy to use with good management and monitoring tools but overall performance for USB storage devices is a disappointment.

Belkin's sleek little Network USB Hub is rather special in that it enables you to share virtually any type of USB device over the network with multiple PCs. The hub adheres to Belkin's design philosophy so its polished black casing will fit in...

Easy to use ; Price justified by good performance

Only Windows compatible ; Bit pricey ; No Gigabit Ethernet

There are a handful of competing products out there, such as Keyspan's USB2 server, but none have really struck home or been any cheaper. Granted, the price does appear expensive for the hardware on offer, but that's not the point. It's what you can ...

It'll take any standard USB device such as a USB hard drive and make it networkable. Seamless useAs for the Ethernet capability, the Network USB Hub is a 10/100Mbps device, so there's no sign of Gigabit Ethernet. We know what you're thinking:...

Belkin Network USB Hub

Network USB device sharing, five ports, easy setup, easy device connection

All that's needed to get your USB device running over the network is to connect the Belkin Network USB hub to your router, install the Belkin Control Center software on your PC, or PCs, and attach your USB device to the hub. The Belkin Network USB...
