Inconsistent

Controlling two laptops running Windows XP Pro SP3
Works OK (sometimes) with separate USB mouse and keyboard devices. Very inconsistent with wireless USB keyboard/mouse combo.
Does not work well with computers booting out of hibernate mode. Often, it just quits working altogether.
Disconnecting the unit completely for several days seems to re-set it, then re-connect and restart the computers one at a time from shut-down mode (this was the advice from an email from IOGEAR tech support), then it works again for a while.
This is the worst KVM switch I've ever used, but it may be because of my wireless keyboard/mouse combo. I wish it had a manual switch button in addition to the hotkey function. I wouldn't recommend it for use with a setup like mine.
What's great about it: Built-in cables for USB, Video, audio; easy set-up
What's not so great: Does not work consistently with wireless keyboard/mouse combo and booting out of hibernate
