don't mind manual switch but will it work with usb from one computer and wifi connector usb on the other computer?

Nope. As pictured, it is for a standard USB type B printer cable connector.

I never got to anything and there were no written instruction. It is now in the bin. Sorry

Afraid not. The switching happens on the 2 side. So 4 peripherals across 2 comps (or DVRs in your case). The button just toggles back and forth between the 2 connections. I use it to share mouse/keyboard across 2 comps.

The switch box has NOT always worked for with two computers attached to 1 printer... You can try it , but there may be signal loss if the USB cables are long.

yes, this is how I am using it too. I have two wired computers on the WD switch which then connects to a wired port on the wireless router. All work fine.

I did not try this but I doubt that it could work. The USBs are: USB3 with blue for data and the other one, USB2 only for power. You can use another power source instead and the you will use only the USB3 for data.

Yes. I use it with KVM switch between my PC desktop and Mac laptop. Some of the extra buttons have different default assignment under two OSes, but other than that, no issues

Yes! There's nothing really "fancy" about the connection. It just plain "hooks up" and switches between whichever computer is active.

I have used both wired and wireless devices with this switch, and I have not had any problems. Right now, I have a wired keyboard, and a wireless mouse (opposite of your intent), before that I had two wireless devices, but like I said, I've never experienced any issues.

I'm not sure what you're exactly referring to, but there are two USB ports on the KVM switch. I have my mouse and keyboard hooked up to the KVM switch. Using the switch, I can control both computers I connect it to.

I use the switch connected to a multi port USB hub. I have my printer, scanner, Wacom graphics tablet, a flash drive (USB) and a 3Tb drive all plugged in. I move from one computer to the next, never have to reboot to switch access from my PC and laptop. I used a bead of silicone adhesive around the base to adhere it to the desk. Not slick, but a $9.00 tool that does everything I have wanted it to do.

Do not think so. The mouse and keyboard have USB ports on the switch, so I can't see how they would be connected with a wireless technique. The driver for the wireless mouse and keyboard are different in an electronic sense.

Yes. All the USB device will switch computers each time you switch the view (I have a wireless USB mouse and it works fine).

No! This works as a one way splitter. You'll need a switch box. If both devices are accidentally turned on at the same time you may damage your electronics.

Setup works exactly as any other router/access point. Via LAN or WiFi interface. USB is only used for power.

No. It is *not a powered hub* and for the record, this is not just a "hub" in the normal sense. This is to switch up to 4 USB devices between 2 computers. I use it for a mouse, keyboard, and microphone and for those devices it works fine. This includes a Razer mouse that does not fully work with at least some other KVM solutions.

Yes. Both need to be connected to the same WiFi network during setup. Works best on a laptop with built-in WiFi. More challenging on a desktop with external WiFi router.

I have used it in a Wi-Fi set up. I used an Ethernet cable run from the unit to a wireless print server that had both USB and Ethernet ports. Never had any problems with it.
