I like the concept of shared devices, BUT. Keyboard and mouse (READ)

What made me buy this KVM is that when I work from home I have 2 computers (personal and work), 2 separate keyboard/mouse sets AND it in the description "WIRELESS keyboard mouse". Setup was easy enough to "switch" Computer 1 to Computer 2 with a shared monitor. HOWEVER, I couldn't get the shared keyboard and mouse to work. I have a Logitech K350 wireless keyboard and mouse with a common merging receiver. Installing the receiver into either of the two USB keyboard and mouse ports on the front just didn't work for either computer. Okay, maybe I don't have the right wireless devices. I wish I knew what they were as there are no offers. I tried my wired devices as recommended a few times. These didn't work either. So I have to decide whether I keep this KVM for the convenience of a shared monitor OR bring it back and continue looking for a device that only allows me to use 1 keyboard and 1 mouse. PLEASE share the brand/model of your wireless devices with those who have verified this KVM works successfully with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Manufacturer/Retailer, it would be nice to know the brand/model(s) of wireless devices you tested that allow you to include the word "WIRELESS" in the description of this product.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Insanely slow
