Can someone tell me if a hub and a router do the same thing? Thanks

ALEC....I now have the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 installed on my pc! Took no time all. Also had a chance to get rid of some dust. Joyce

Thanks to both of you so much!! My Scanner is connected to a USB port and I was just curious about the router. When I installed the scanner it said I didn't have a "Hi Speed USB port" on my pc. Heck, I wouldn't know if I do or not. Also it said that it would work on my USB port but would run slower. What does getting a Hi Speed USB port involve? If it's something I have to install I have no problem with that cause I've already been inside my pc. Oh, and I'm not a 'man', I'm a woman. lolol An old woman at that.

Thank you so much for your quick reply. That was a lot of info. for my pea brain to absorb but I think I get the idea. The reason I asked is because I have two pc's networked. I have DSL, a DSL modem and a D-Link router. There are two spaces left on the router and I wondered if my scanner could plug into it. OS Win XP HO Scanjet 3970 Speed Stream 5100 modem
