This should be totally dependent upon which plug on your machine/motherboard, you are plugging into. I have specific sockets on my board that are linked to the 2.0 Hub, and others that go to the 1.0 Hub. If I use the socket attached to the 2.0 Hub, then the device should be 2.0 unless the hardware itself is not 2.0 in which case, the machine downgrades to 1.1 since the standard is backwards compatible. You should be able to look at your motherboard manual and it will tell you exactly where the 2.0 sockets should be connected on the motherboard. Follow that plug to the external socket and plug your device in there. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer
