Truely DOES work with Wireless Keyboard and Mouse COMBO, July 6, 2011

I needed a replacement for my IOGEAR KVM switch that worked with both Sun Solaris and Windows XP. This is a new product and I bought it blind. I am very pleased with it. Switching is easy with 2 hits of the "SCROLL LOCK" key on any USB keyboard. The built-in audio switch is a nice added bonus. Built-in cables is an extra nice feature as those can run you an extra $25.00 if they are not included with your KVM switch. This will also work for Apple MacIntosh and any LINUX based computer.

I purchased this KVM because my IOGEAR (GCS632U) Did not work with my new Wireless Keyboard and Mouse combo ("Microsoft Wireless Comfort 5000 2.4Ghz). I went through 3 sets trying to get them to work with the IOGEAR switch and could not get anything to work. Weird because my OLD Microsoft Wireless Keyboard and mouse did work with the IOGEAR switch. I guess the new 2.4 GHZ USB adapters do not like the IOGEAR switch.This switch on the other hand, works PERFECTLY with my new keyboard and mouse. It really saved the day (I was ALMOST about to go back to wired, YUK).I have the 2.4GHZ usb adapter that came with the wireless keyboard and mouse plugged into the keyboard port of the switch. My Windows XP laptop (that is in a docking station) and my Windows 7 Tower are now switching back and forth (using the scroll lock key) perfectly, it never misses.I hope this hels someone, because I spent quite a bit of time researching this before I found a combo...

I bought this four months ago, to replace a PS2-based KVM when I upgraded my keyboard. It is the most unreliable KVM I've ever used, and comes complete with absolutely ZERO customer service.The KVM operates only by hotkey switching; you press a certain combination of keys to switch between systems. Unfortunately, the hotkey system is flakey at best; the port-ID command has never worked for me, and the other commands work about twenty percent of the time - the rest of the time just results in you turning numlock on and off a whole lot, and filling your screen with '-', 't' and 'a'.As my keyboard doesn't have a scroll-lock key (the default switch - you have a choice between that, or your control key - no custom keys.) I have to set the KVM to use the alternate toggle - but it "forgets" this setting once every week or so, forcing me to set it again (and see above re: it ignores most commands I send it.) There doesn't seem to be any reason for this (no power...
