I received the Wavlink device, but I'm fairly certain I'm going to return

I was hoping that I'd be able to find a manual or an installation guide
online before I received (or opened) the package, but I did not.

When happens when you connect the docking station to a USB 2.0 port on
your Dell 1501 laptop?  What does dmesg report?

I haven't unwrapped the unit -- I'm returning the unit in the original, intact
packaging.

What is the make and model of the Express Card dual 3.0 adapter?

Haven't received that yet, probably coming in 6 weeks from the far east.

I have a 4-port USB3 hub running on an older Dell Laptop. Works fine. It's a Sentey or Sentry--couldn't read the 4th letter, it's fancy print--Model LS8101. It works in Windows and PCLinuxOS with no drivers or anything. Not running PCLinux on any other machine anymore, since they castrated it, but it still runs my Epson printer/scanner and OpenSUSE does not.
