netKeyboard

Naturally, when hearing the name netKeyboard, you immediately think of a network-type keyboard, but how that is possible doesn't actually come to mind. Well, this application attempts to explain this process by allowing any user to control one or more Windows-based systems via the home network. The app is inspired by UDPterminal and works with the help of the Windows Command line.

Since this program relies on the command line terminal to execute any actions, one must make sure that the actual lines are understood. The application makes things easy since it gives the user a list of these commands when and if the user executes the "--help" query. Other given information upon execution is related to certain modes the app can assume. Thus, if you'd like to switch in-between Server and Client mode, you are free to do so, provided you indicate the correct line of execution.

In order for your keyboard to function via a home network, the user is required to input relevant information for both the server and client machines. In both cases, you'll need to specify a port number, but only in the case of the client machine will the user be asked for an IP address. It makes sense since you'll be using the server machine to connect to a client PC. The application also provides other commands for changing port numbers and IP addresses freely.

netKeyboard is an application that not all users will embrace. For starters, it relies on the Windows command line system, and that's quite scary for most average users. Another aspect to be taken into consideration is the fact that setting up such an application takes more time to adjust than actually use for transmitting any keyboard signals. Regardless, if you're up for the task of fine-tuning this program, your reward might just be well worth the wait.
