  • Incredible product from passionate developers
I just wanted to give some praise to this relatively small company who has done an amazing job with this project. They have an active project on GitHub that is a fork of the open source library PiKVM, with a very responsive developer. They are iterating and adding features quickly, but the out-of-box experience is already wonderful. It's very well designed hardware with a quality metal enclosure. The software works perfectly and is well designed. It's also an incredible value compared to the competition. ... show more

  • A small, very cool, budget friendly IP KVM!
Well constructed, aluminum case. With two small exceptions, it includes all of the required cables you will need out of the box. The two exceptions are that if your host only has USB-A, you will need to either plug the Comet into a power adapter that will provide the proper power required and then use the USB-C to USB-A cable that is normally used to power it, order you’ll need to purchase another USB-C to USB-A cable or adapter. Second, the video port is HDMI - which is excellent, and is love that it is a full sized HDMI port - however this means plugging it into a device that requires VGA, DVI, or DisplayPort will require the use of an adapter and then setting the EDID to one that conveys the lack of Audio support and a possible lower resolution to the web interface / app. Ultimately a minor inconvenience, but it would be nice if it came with an assortment of adapters on a key ring or something with tested EDID information. As VGA, and DVI don’t carry audio i haven’t found any workaround to have audio be available in those instances, but since those are both quite rare these days it’s a minor problem. Dell Servers have VGA only, but with servers you rarely need the audio as is, and the newest generation of Dell servers have an optional Mini DisplayPort so theoretically they should be able to carry audio but I don’t have one so I can’t test that out. Straight out of the box, it was running the V1.1.0 release2 Firmware. Starting the firmware upgrade was straightforward and to the point however it transitions to a loading screen that says to not refresh the page while it is being updated and that it will take several minutes for the update to complete - it just sat there and never refreshed or went back to the GUI so after waiting half an hour I just restarted the Comet and reopened the GUI to see if I bricked it or something - it was fine and was now using the latest version of firmware, which at the time of writing this is V1.2.3 release1. I believe the update needed to force a reboot or the update screen should instruct the user to perform that step after a certain amount of time. As stated in their documentation, the default resolution and EDID is set to 2560x1440p / GLKVM / 60 Hz, and I have confirmed this matches what MacOS reports. At that resolution, I did find that even when on-prem and using the same local network, that resolution was a bit too high for its ability to encode on the fly for video or lots of changes on the screen (I noticed this first when seeing that the screensaver had turned on and that it wasn’t able to handle the “video” stream very well. Reducing the resolution and using one of the preloaded EDID for either “1920x1080 / ASUS / 60Hz” or “1920x1200 / Samsung / 60Hz” reduced this effect greatly, though it is still a little choppy - it’s passable for remote use via a budget friendly IP KVM though. The On-Screen keyboard when the Comet is connected to a Mac Mini (M1) displays as a Windows keyboard and MacOS shortcuts don’t work. I tried closing out (normally “Command + Q” and attempted using all three modifier keys - Alt, the Windows “Meta” key, and the CTRL keys - to no avail and even tried using individual taps and also multitouch taps on the virtual keyboard. I was going to submit a bug report on their GitHub repository for this but noticed someone already reported the issue and they said they are going to work on it. Outside of the little quirky “bugs” that are likely going to be fixed soon, and the fact there are no adapters included for different display types (VGA, DVI, DisplayPort), it’s awesome and even with those bugs and lack of adapters, I would still buy it again (see last paragraph) My wish list for things they can change or be improved upon: - On the next model / revision of this, please put all of the ports on one side of the device as dealing with this many cables coming out of two different sides is quite the pain to deal with. - For this current model, please design a purpose built plastic cable router or make some custom cables to help redirect all of the cables in an orderly fashion to one side of the device. - Design and sell a travel case that fits everything perfectly, including the display adapters (if needed). The only case I can find doesn’t take that into account. - Design a model that integrates a LTE/5G Cellular Travel Router with an additional 1Gb switch port or two, WiFi (useful if cellular and Ethernet connectivity isn’t an option, and could utilize the wireless relay feature already available on the other Travel Routers sold by GLiNet), and a screen to display the KVM IP address and Router IP. This would create the ideal Internet-connected KVM system, suitable for practical use in various locations. The model should be user-friendly, even for those who aren’t tech-savvy, allowing operators in the field to easily plug it in to enable a remote technician to work on it. Overall, I’m quite impressed with this device. It’s a cool, handy, and nice little budget-friendly addition to my toolkit. I had ordered two originally from GL.iNet directly through their website, but those aren’t expected to arrive until tomorrow, and I included the ATX control accessory, so we’ll see how that goes. In any case, I recommend this for anyone looking for a budget-friendly option. ... show more

  • A cheap, flexible and reliable hardware solution to allow remote KVM access.
There were two primary functions I wanted to test this KVM for: 1. Using WOL to wake up a headless host and then be able to remotely connect to it both via LAN and WAN. Previously I had to use one utility to do the WOL and have a client loaded onto the host which meant that you couldn't remote to it until the OS had booted. The KVM allows me to use a single interface to WOL and then connect to the device. Having no client means you can also connect during POST if needed. 2. Connect to a Chromebook remotely Previously to connect to a Chromebook remotely you needed to have Chrome Remote Desktop installed and you had to enter a code to allow remote access at the host meaning someone had to be at the host Chromebook. The KVM allows full access to the Chromebook now but with the caveat that the Chromebook is turned on as Chromebooks don't support WOL. (You could do with a remote power switch if you need to as most Chromebook will boot on power up). The unit is well made with an aluminum body which does get a bit warm even when in standby. You can connect via the app but that's only available for Windows and Mac at the moment and as primarily a Chromebook user, I use a Wireguard VPN into my home Flint 2 and then just use the web interface direct to the KVM. I can't seem to see any major differences in performance using the different connection methods ( Windows app vs Chromebook VPN). For remote access this unit works wonders. There's no software client or subscription fees which is a huge bonus and initial capital cost is low. The ability to do whatever I need to on the remote host is great and I can even stream videos with audio. There's a heap of settings to play with to get the most optimal solution for your requirements so it's pretty flexible. At the moment I don't have any use for the more advance functions like ATX or Fingerbot control but nice to know they're there if I ever need it. Well worth the money if you need simple, clientless and easy remote access. ... show more

  • Pretty good. IP KVM
So after tinkering around a little bit I finally did get this thing working. I'm not a huge fan of the wall gardening, the app to Windows and Mac only. The main reason I got this product was to have a decent 60 FPS stream to control some of my servers over my land. And what's awesome is you can do exactly that you don't have to specifically be controlling just Mac and windows. All of my servers are running. Popos and with these plugged in, I can easily sit at my laptop and connect to the IP address locally without ever having to install or touch their application for that use. It's great! It works a lot better than open RDP or just RDP with Windows. My only downside to it is I do wish that had power over ethernet which the newer model looks like it will be just cuz it's kind of a mess for cable management ... show more
