Won't Work With Wireless
I bought this unit to replace a D-Link DKVM-2K one because I wanted the four-channel model and because the price was right (you get what you pay for).
After disconnecting a D-Link KVM-2 switch (that works flawlessly) and connecting the TK-400K switch, neither of my desktop computers would access my wireless router (D-Link 624) even though my laptop (which I am using now) works perfectly with the wireless router.
Trendnet does not have a tollfree number and I have called ten...

Poor compatibility, poor customer service
Switch did not work with my Samsung 191T monitor. Customer service people were slow to respond and were not helpful.

Meh.
For basic switching between computers, this works OK with some annoyances. Why are there two loud beeps every time I switch between computers? Why do I need a loud and irritating confirmation that I switched computers? I can see it right there on my screen.
If you don't have the computer active (selected on the KVM) when you start it up, then the mouse wheel scrolling defaults to off. In order to reactivate the scroll wheel, you have to physically unplug the mouse. When you plug it bac...

Better than nothing...
I ordered this based on price when there was a $10 rebate offerred Jan 2006. It was easy to setup and plug in--but there were a few things I didn't think through before ordering.
I have an optical mouse (USB) but this switch only supports PS/2. Even with the USB->PS/2 adaptor I had been using with my computer, it was not recognized. So I found my old PS/2 microsoft mouse, but every once and awhile the mouse just stops working. I have to reboot the computer and unplug and replug ...

Worked like a champ
Very simple to setup and use. Includes 4 kvm cables, so there is nothing else to buy. Plugged in all the cables, turned on the 2 computers (1 win xp pro, 1 win 2k) and I was good to go. The unit doesn't need to be plugged into an electrical outlet either. The hotkey sequence for switching computers is very simple, double tap of the scroll lock key, then either the up or down arrow. Unit beeps for confirmation when you do switch. Great deal for only $45.

Best Bang For Buck
I have purchased one of these units only after seeing the 3 we have at work in action.
I work for an ISP and we have a test row of machines which get abused, kicked around and just beaten accidently by techs who replicate issues on machines.
We are switching from machine to machine to machine all the time and these TrendNet units seems to just keep working.
I was so happy with them I bought one for myself and it has always worked fine. I work on Pcs at my house,...

It works...but can be frustrating
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Works. No problems with mouse or keyboard connection after switching between stations.
Cons: Horrible blue tint that requires you to position the VGA connection just right to get rid of it.
Other Thoughts: I have spent too much time wiggling the VGA cable trying to restore correct coloration. I would not purchase this product again.
