Doesn't really work

(2 out of 5) by Sarah on Dec 17, 2004 (Oklahoma)
I can switch from one computer to the other, but I can't switch back. Manual for troubleshooting - doesn't help. Called tech support - also NO help. Back to the drawing board.

Not enough power.

I hooked this switch up to a 17" LCD monitor, a Dell desktop and an IBM Thinkpad. All worked well, except for monitor flicker when using the Thinkpad that made the switch unusable. I called Belkin support and they told me that this was due to lack of power, even though the switch was pulling from PS/2 ports on both computers. The support person recommended that I purchase Belkin model number F1DB102P, which can take input from an external power supply.

I wish I'd known this before I bought it!

A Shameful Disgrace

(1 out of 5) by dc65 on Dec 23, 2005
This product is Garbage. Belkin ought to be ashamed. I will never buy another Belkin product as long as I live. It worked fine for a while, as other reviewers pointed out, but whatever you do - don't change anything after you get it working. We made the mistake of moving our computer desk to the other side of the room. Unplugged all our equipment, moved it, plugged it back in again. It only sees one of our two computers. No matter what we do, we can't get it to work again. What a waste of life.
