Sounds like you need a wireless usb transmitter and reciever hooked up
to a secondary mouse, or a second media machine, or just can the whole idea.


That "wireless USB transmitter/receiver" is the problem.


I've seen a wireless USB hub at one of the computer box stores. I
suppose you plug a dongle into the printer/scanner/whatever USB port and
the USB hub sends and receives signals from a WiFi router. You still
have the same problem, though...if the scanner is distant from where you
are using your computer, you still have to walk over to the scanner to
put your documents on the flatbed.

The cabinet my wife wants to stash her new scanner in is about 12' from
the back of her computer. I measured it. The new cable will work fine,
and no one will notice the cable among the several along the baseboard
in her home office.

Sometimes less complicated is better.
