I recall reading something about USB 1.1 and 2.0 speed compatibility issues. Specifically that if you plug a 1.1 device on a 2.0 hub/usb card, all the other devices (which may be 2.0) have to run at 1.1 speeds. Is this correct?

I know that if I use a 1.1 hub on a 2.0 port (computer), it will slow to 1.1 speeds. But does that mean other devices on the same computer will run at 1.1 speeds too?

Thanks.

All I ever really needed to know, I learned from watching Star Trek.

You are right about the Hub.....

But - there is no 'global' speed reduction caused when you connect a USB 1.1 device into a 2.0 Hub. Other 2.0 devices connected to that hub will still operate at their normal 2.0 speed.
