Linksys is sort of well known for playing this trick: they call entry level switches "hub" and reserve "switch" for higher-level equipment. Which is fine for people who just have to check email and play Quake, but screws you to no end when you actually need a hub :-/ Google will tell you more about this, as well as suggesting real hubs.
