Periphearal problems.......2007-05-16

I had returned a similar device prior to purchasing this item, because it wouldn't work with my computer. I had hoped it was the device and not the computer, but this one doesn't work either.
It's a fairly simple connection, but for some reason my computer won't either recognize it or shuts down another USB device.
The part is probably OK, but I couldn't tell you.
I really should return it.

I got this thing to share a keyboard and mouse (which are plugged into a USB hub) with 2 computers. I was tired of having 2 keyboards and 2 mice on my desk!

I am using a Dell LCD monitor that has a built in USB ports and supports VGA and DVI simultaneously via a built in switch.

I can now plug in all my USB peripherals (external hard drive, keyboard and mouse) into my monitor hub and at the touch of a switch can toggle between the 2 towers.

It simply works, it takes a few seconds to kick in, but it works every time. No software installation necessary.

Note: The package comes with 1 USB cable only - so if you are looking to use it the way I did you would need 2 additional USB cables.

I got this to hook a hub to it and share my usb devices between two pc's. That didnt work, I thought it was the hub at first and tried a different hub, nope. Also you cant hook a thumbdrive to this either, gives nothing but erros. Was able to share a printer but I wanted to share all my devices. I give this device 1 star.

I bought this product so that my MIDI interface AMT8 can be shared by my new MacBook Pro and old G4. So far I haven't encountered any problem. (Note: of course, the AMT8 cannot be accessed by the two computers simultaneously. This product allows users to switch back and forth between them.)

Works Great!.......2007-01-10

This little gem works great. You'll be happy you bought it and wonder how you ever got along without it before.
