If you want a decent hub either check out the 3com hubs or the netgears:

or

Hub recommendations - either "this works" *or* "this doesn't work" - should be added to

(and if there's already an entry, but your experience is different from what the entry notes, add a note to the entry; perhaps some product names/model numbers are used both for real hub and switching hub products).
