| Scenario | Implementation | |----------|----------------| | License dongle sharing | Plug hardware dongle into a server VM; multiple clients connect sequentially. | | Printer over long distance | USB printer attached to office PC shared to remote branch via WAN. | | RDP USB redirection | Redirect a local USB scanner to a Terminal Server session. | | Test automation | Remotely mount/unmount USB devices for QA testing across VMs. |


| Problem | Likely Cause | Solution | |---------|--------------|----------| | “Device cannot start (Code 10)” on client | Virtual USB driver conflict | Reinstall client driver; disable any other USB over IP software. | | Connection drops after 5 minutes | Firewall or router timeout | Set a keep-alive interval: usbr_server.exe /keepalive 30 | | USB device not showing on server | Windows driver not loaded | Unplug/replug device; run server as admin. | | High CPU on server | Logging enabled at Debug level | Change log level to Error only via config file. | | Cannot connect from client | Wrong port or firewall | Ensure TCP 32032 open; test with telnet server_ip 32032 |

| Component | Requirement | |-----------|--------------| | OS (Server) | Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, Server 2003/2008 (32/64-bit) | | OS (Client) | Same as above | | Network | TCP port 32032 (default, configurable) | | Permissions | Administrator rights for driver installation |

Note: v1.9.7 predates Windows 8/10/11. On newer OS versions, compatibility mode may work but is not guaranteed.


USB Redirector 1.9.7 is a professional-grade software solution designed to share and access USB devices over a local area network (LAN) or the Internet. Unlike basic USB hubs, this application creates a virtual link between a USB device physically plugged into one machine (the server) and a remote computer (the client) that needs to use it.

At its core, version 1.9.7 operates on a proprietary TCP/IP protocol that encapsulates raw USB requests. This allows the remote operating system to interact with the USB device as if it were plugged directly into its own port. Whether you need to access a license dongle, a multi-function printer, a webcam, or a storage drive, this version provides the bridge.
