This is a bit lengthy, but a real world application of this tool, allowing me to give it 5 stars without batting an eye.
In this modern IT age it's surprising that software vendors of major applications still force us to use the USB "dongle" in our network for license management. We have multiple applications in our environment that rely on a dongle being connected to the distributing license server for users to be able to access a particular application.
Rating: - Works well
The Anywhere USB works as advertised. I'm running two USB printers from a Win2003R2 server in another location. Worked well for me because one of the printers only works as a local printer. Couldn't even get it to work with an HP printer USB printer server. The only set up problems I had were fixed by unplugging the power from the Anywhere USB and plugging it back in.
Rating: - Get rid of ugly cable syndrome - 12 step program
Well, perhaps only a few steps. But, first you have to buy an expensive item (minus one star). Once over the sticker shock, and after a couple of installation steps, the device works as advertised. Outstanding! I use it in the laboratory to control equipment at a distance. That way, I can remotely control equipment in a refrigerator without freezing my bippy.
