I have a reverse KVM setup that allows two sets of keyboards, mice and monitors to control one computer. It uses two boxes -- one local and one remote -- that you connect via a Cat5 cable. Problem is, my remote box is a short-range box and my network cabling extends beyond its range.
My questions are:
1. Is there a device that can boost the networking signal somehow to allow so that the short-range box can pick up the signal in a long-range setting?
2. Is there a wireless solution? I tried using two wireless routers, but, without having them connected to a computer network, I couldn't get them to communicate with each other. They had a "static address" option. Would this do the trick?
Thank you in advance for any help on this matter.
