I purchased this product and have been using it for about 3 weeks now. It was very easy to set up and configure and works just like a wired hub only now I can get all of my USB devices off my desktop which I think is very cool.

I put this in my home office on my credenza and connected my HP printer, Seagate 500GB HDD, and my digital photo frame. As I said everything just works like it was connected to my computer. I have set up automatic backups of my hard drive and I sync my photos to my frame without having to hook it up to my computer.

I think that this is a great product and I reccopmend to anyone that needs to expand thier USB ports and remove the clutter form their lives.

If you're extremely lucky it might just work, otherwise odds are stacked against you. This device may or may not be recognized and the signal may or may not go through the walls, etc. All depends on your range requirements and location of the equipment. It is better to buy this thing off a store where you can return it easily than buying online.

All wireless USB hubs do not work, I have tried several. This is coming from an IT expert. I tried using this for my home printer and it would lose connectivity constantly, It would also re-install my printer randomly and make a duplicate one, except one would be offline and one would be online.

This is a terrible device. It doesn't work at all. I followed the instructions and the status icon in the notification area indicated that it was working properly, but not one single device I plugged into it worked properly. One it failed to recognize at all, one was recognized as a completely different device and the other three were recognized and configured correctly but I couldn't actually use them. This was at a range of about 5' from the computer.

The software which comes with it doesn't begin to work as described in the manual (there are configuration screens which you are supposed to be able to open, which don't open, making it impossible to try to fix whatever it is that isn't working.

As an added bonus, uninstalling the software screwed up my SATA controller drivers and I had to reinstall them.

Bought this item to hook up keyboard and mouse. It doesn't work. There are no product upgrades and no online support from D-Link. The item doesn't deserve the one star I gave it.
