The need of a USB hub has been discussed for ages on openwrt forum and this forum. It is a hw/sw problem with the underlying Atheros chipset, that does not handle USB 1.x connections well. A USB 2.0 hub translates traffic to USB 2.0 standard, which can be handled fine by the Atheros chip set inside the TP-Link HW.
When you are in Europe the Logilink Smile (
