Oh that's a pitty... because I intend to use the USB camera as webcam for the above mentioned IM services but also as a network camera for surveillance.
So my new Idea is now to use a USB Switch box to make both possible with one camera:
But I have two concerns for that kind of construction:
- How does the Asus Router react if the Switch box hardly "removes" the USB device? Will it recognize correctly that the device is unplugged and on the other hand
- How does the Asus Router react if the Switch box "plugs in" the USB device back again? Will it recognize the USB device is plugged in again correctly and provide access through network?
To check this and to avoid spending money for something that doesn't work I would like to ask some 500x owner (both Premium and not Premium) with a webcam attached to the router to simply check what will happen if you hardly unplug and replug the cam.
- Will the router still work after hardly unplugging the device?
- Will the webcam work again like a network camera after replugging the device?
Thank you very, very much for your help guys!!!
