Techy Bods, What Kit Will Do The Same As This Please?

[woofgang]

I have found this which will do what I need which is to make kit, which is usually connected via a cable, connect wirelessly. However the techy vocabulary has me totally confused when i try to compare different ones as they all seem to be called something different.
Can any techy wizzes point me in the direction of other bits of kit which will do the same as this one please?

What exactly do you want to use it for?

I also am interested to know for what purpose you require such a piece of equipment'

ok.... I have got a scan n cut craft cutting machine (think plotter with a blade) It is wireless and the idea is that you can use software to design stuff on your computer then send it wirelessly to the machine BUT you can only send one file at once and then you have to go to the machine to save it.
There is a vid on youtube (added) where an american expert uses this bit of kit to make her computer see the machine as an external drive so she can send multiple files at once. I also have got a wired laser printer in the same room that i would like to make wireless.

I have no idea, but I hope you find the answer.

It seems to me to be simply a USB hub that connects wirelessly to your PC. I've not come across them before. I would expect one to be much like another. Is there a reason not to use tge brand/model shown to work ?

[Old_Geezer]

I may be misunderstanding but it seems to me that all that's being done is giving up on the usual wireless connection and connecting to this wireless hub that seems to be being used as network attached storage memory instead. As the video says, at your own risk try a different brand/model. But ensure that you can return it for a refund if you can't get it to work.

Thanks all, I found a techy expert on facebook. Apparently that model is what I need and as its a comparatively new concept, is the only one around that is designed and priced for home use. Question closed.
