Can this be hooked up to 2 computers at the same time?

Try using connectify and setup your own hotspot off of your computer. This will allow other computers to connect to your hotspot.

you will need to download software on both computers & find a usb splitter.

no since it is pluged into the computer during use. you can use it with more than one computer but seperatly. it works great but only on one computer at a time.

Yes, as long as both computers are on the same network they should be able to share.

I think you can only connect one computer directly. But if you connect it to USB of a router you can share it across a network.

According to WD pre-sales, you can't connect it direclty to two computers simultaneously. You can connect it to one computer at a time. Hope this helps

This is a splitter, not a switch.For two computers to a single monitor, you need a switch.

I am not really sure. The cable is meant to be used as a way to boost the output from a pc that only has USB2 to USB3 capacity but utilizing 2 USB ports at the same time. Though I suppose that you could use the cable on 2 separate devises, if they were close enough together or you had expansion cables, but the input would have to still be one at a time. This is because, at least to my knowledge, most if not all USB devises are not setup to act like data switch to control bottlenecking. But you can always try; it will either work or it won't so no harm no foul.

Yes you can, however, one of the ports are VGA (analog signal) and the other uses DVI (digital video input).

Sure, I don't see why not. For all intents and purposes it's just two more network ports. I'm using mine in an ESXI box.

I really don't know.I bought one to be capable of using 2 computers at the same time when it was necessary. Once both ethernet cables were connected to this thing-I could not even access the internet with one computer. I had to unplug the ethernet cable from the second computer to get online. I had hoped this unit would work-but it didn't. I did get a full refund from the seller,and Amazon refunded the $6.00 it cost me to return it-so I would say you can take a gamble on it-if it doesn't work for you at least you won't be out of any money.

This is a network printer, so with it connected to your router on your network, it can most definately be hooked up to two computers

You sure can. Connect a cable from your wall connection to the hub then, connect each of your computers to the hub. It will work just fine.

Yes, you can connect two of them, it should not matter but I would not run both at the same time.

No according to the manual. But you might be able to sync two computers via SMPTE or midi time clock.

this device supports vga, otherwise you would need an adaptor. it allows you to use two pcs with one monitor, mouse and keyboard.
