Review on πŸ” Enhanced SEO: Belkin OmniView SOHO Series 4-Port KVM Switch with Audio by Joel Wright

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Really frustrating! on KVM switches

Like the '54 XK120, this thing is beautifully designed and completely unreliable. It randomly loses communication with my Intellimouse and my MS-USB keyboard. 30-90 seconds will pass and then it will reconnect, sometimes only to disconnect within a few seconds, sometimes it will stay connected for half an hour at a time. Oddly enough, it appears to support connecting to a monitor, albeit often as a regular display rather than a Samsung flat panel. I used IOGear's two-port KVM successfully until I got my third computer up and running, but I was drawn to the style. guilty! I give 0 stars for performance, 4 stars for style, averaging 2 stars.

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
