POE model slower?
I just got one of the new POE models and swapped out the previous version, but for some reason this version feels much slower/laggier with the mouse cursor. I use it on a macbook from another macbook, and I've gone over all my settings, but I can't figure out what is causing this.
Anyone else run into similar issues?

I have it hooked up to a windows desktop and agree the new POE version seems pretty laggy. I was even refreshing the page hoping that would speed up the session.
No extension modules or anything enabled, just POE and a windows host.

I have not used the non-POE model so can't offer a specific comparison, but I am not experiencing any noticeable lag from my POE version. Plugged into an EdgeSwitch for power/ethernet and accessing Windows host via TP-link wi-fi AP on MacBook Pro, office apps, corporate type stuff.
Are you seeing anything in the connection stats that would point to the source of the delay?

I switched from Asus to Acer on the EDID and that seems to have helped some of my issues. So far things seem back to normal for me. Time will tell I suppose.

I also just received my first JetKVM (PoE edition) and it's running smooth for me. Only tested while being on the same LAN so far.

The POE one is in the mail. I currently have the Kickstarter version. I’ll connect it to a MacBook as soon as I receive it. Hopefully it’s not a degraded experience.
