But that's OK isn't it? I don't need 2.0 speeds between each webcam and the controller, I just need the increased overall bandwidth of a 2.0 controller so one of the 1.1 webcams doesn't use all of it. I get the feeling I have a misconception somewhere along the line here. Could someone straighten me out? - Grant
