Since I've had to retreat to an older computer, I'm now once again faced with the "which ports are 1.1 and which are 2.0? I never did figure this one out the first time.
Here's my device manager entries:
Generic USB Hub
Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller - 27CA
Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller - 27CB
Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller - 27C8
Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller - 27C9
Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) Enhanced USB Universal Host Controller - 27CC
USB Composite Device
USB Mass Storage Device
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
USB Root Hub
The Generic Hub is an external powered Hub, 2.0 single TT. Also showing is an external drive and the Composite device is either the hub again, or the mouse or keyboard, which are both plugged into the hub. No other connections at this time.
So the 5 Host Controllers all seem to match the 5 Root hubs by looking at the properties. But this is where my understanding stops.
Are the "Root Hubs" physical or logical hubs? I would say physical as there are 5 ports in the rear, But there are two in the front.
Then the age old question - which one(s) are actually 2.0? Leo Laporte said, a long time ago as noted by the date on the article, that if one of them is enhanced, they're all enhanced! Then why don't they all say enhanced?
I've done speed tests just with copying a large file on 3 of the 7 ports and they are all the same. Not sure if this test means anything though!
Thanks!
