    I will not buy any Belkin product again. Company has caused me a lot of grief trying to get this to work with my laptop/docking station and desktop. They should have made this limitation known upfront. They can choose to engage in deceptive marketing practices, but consumers have a choice too.

    The packaging indicates that it works with all PC’s, so I bought it and connected it to my Desktop and my Laptop. It worked on occasion when I switched to the laptop, and since the documentation said it worked with all PC’s I figured I had a driver issue, and would get to it when I could. It wasn’t until I called Belkins tech support (very hard to get through to by the way) that I was informed that it does not work with laptops nor is there a fix. The only reason it’s still in use in my office is because I need a monitor extension cord.

    Nice boat anchor.

    This item arrived without a power supply. It looked as if the box had been opened before (no shrink wrap). I’ve contacted Amazon about this twice, once on the web (to ask if anything could be done) and once by phone. I received no response to my web inquiry at all, and the rep I reached on the phone told me he’d send a return ticket (apparently my only option) but that they had no more in stock and I’d just have to wait. I never did get the return ticket. Printing one is an option, I guess, but I’ve hit a point where I really resent being put to all this trouble because of Amazon’s mistakes.

    Amazon’s never treated me this badly before, over anything. I can only guess that they sent me the last one on the shelf, and that it had been re-stocked without a proper inspection. Consider getting your KVM switch elsewhere. It could be a lot less hassle.

    The unit itself looks like it would do the job just fine, if I could only plug it in.

    The KVM switch works flawlessly. However I believe it should have come with the external power supply.
