Yep, this is the right one. However, it still won't work on
all interfaces. Some cards want power from a hub. My SMC card
needs it (de interface). It's the card not the device driver.

If you really need a hub and have little money to spend. You
might try www.onsale.com. It's an internet auction. I haven't 
bought anything myself, but I've been looking at it, and it
looks like some good prices.
