Ed,

Good Luck!  I unsuccessfully tried the Entrega (now Xircom, I believe) USB
hub but had absolutely no luck with it.

 In the end, I had a completely new PC made up for me with a Byterunner
serial port card. I now have 4 USB, 4 serial and 3 Lpt ports, Life is good.
Your only chance is one of these usb hub ports; some people have had success
other's like me had nothing but grief.  GL de Phil W2GE (((73)))

Can anyone tell me of an external unit I can plug into my USB port on my
computer that will give me 2 or more comm ports and not use any IRQ's.  I
would also like another parallel port in this unit.  I would like a unit
that sets up easily!

I am out of IRQ's and need more comm ports.

Thanks,
