KVM Switch with Ethernet

[Mcintosh85]

Hi,

I'm new to the forum, and hoping this is the correct place for this question.

I am trying to find the best solution for using 2 laptops with peripherals, but also with Ethernet connection.

I would like the internet (ethernet) to work on both laptops simultaneously, but the other peripherals (monitor, mouse etc) only when switched.

Is this possible with a KVM switch? If yes, any recommendations? If no, what is the best solution for this? To minimise cables/clutter.

Thanks in advance.

You just need a basic switch.

A basic KVM switch?

What about the ethernet?

Just get a basic network switch for your ethernet. Run your connection into both PCs simultaneously.
