Hub says:

Port  Name               Status     Vlan       Level  Duplex Speed Type
----- ------------------ ---------- ---------- ------ ------ ----- ------------
 5/11                    connected  1          normal   full   100 10/100BaseTX

And I just checked transfer rates, very bad. many runts.
Switched hub from Full Duplex 100 to Auto and it still shows Full Duplex and
100, but much better transfer rate.
