2 out of 5 stars doesn' work with al products.......2007-04-24

This product didn't work with my wireless mouse, scanner, and it would mess up my print que and I would have to restart the Keyspan software to get it working again.

I returned it.

1 out of 5 stars Works only as a print server not with scanners!.......2007-02-28

I purchased this item with the express understanding that it would work "backwards" with my xerox scanner. It does not. After several emails ftp transmissions with tech support and hours on the phone I was able to get it to limp along as a printer server not for scanner - now for the unfortunate part as a printer server, each user has to release the printer they are using for another user to use the printer. I have had much better success sharing printers with pc's on the network and leaving all the pc's on. The product did not fit my needs tech support was weak at best - they were not fluent in english and resorted to written correspondence via email - then because I couldn't get the unit to work as they said it could they gave up on me and stopped responding.

3 out of 5 stars Don't need this if running MAc OSX 10.39 or higher.......2007-01-19

if you're on a Macintosh running OX 10.39 or higher you don't need this product for sharing with other machines on your network , The Mac OS shares USB printers and peripherals thru BonJour A piece of cake.

Good product that does exactly what I need with no problems.

4 out of 5 stars Very good, but not perfect.......2006-08-07

Works great for the most part. Installing the KeySpan software was very easy, but installing drivers for devices connected through the KeySpan can be problematic. I also had one incident where the device got hung up and had to be restarted.

When I spoke to the tech support person (who was not in India, big points for that) I found out several "codes" for the lights on the box. These light combinations should be documented in the material you get with the device. I don't think it was.
