Hi all, have seen a few of these on eBay and amazon for about £20. Wondering if they live up to their promise. Has anyone got any recommendations for something to get some more juice out of the left hand side of my SP2?
No direct experience with those items, but I do have a USB 3.0 hub (no ethernet), which works just fine with various external drives, etc.
I do have a USB D-Link wireless adapter, quite an inexpensive model, which very consistently outperforms the built-in WiFi adapter by quite a margin. Typically the Marvell receives at 65 Mb/sec, sometimes 130 Mb. The outboard D-Link shows 150 Mb reading the same access point. Plugging the D-Link into the hub gives the same results as plugged directly into the SP2 port.
