I have 3 PC's running Keyclone. Should I connect the two clone PCs from the main PC or should I connect to the main PC from the individual clone PCs. Or does it even matter?

From my experience it really doesn't matter, but I do hit connect on my main (auto connect) to connect with my clone. All of the clients can communicate with each other so there is no "main" controller. The only issues I have is with the "Off" switch (pause). If you hit it on your clones your keystrokes will no longer accept broadcasted keystrokes from your main.Quote:

when connecting multiple keyclones, my suggestion would be to connect your clones INTO your main. using the auto-connect (keyclone/setup/general) can make this a trivial task
btw... DO NOT daisy chain your keyclones as this would increase the latency (although an extra 1 or 2 ms is nothing when you have >100ms server latency). try to keep your main as the center of the wheel... sending out keystrokes to the keyclones on the rim.
ie:
main -> cloneA -> cloneB -> cloneC
not as good as:
main -> cloneA
..... -> cloneB
..... -> cloneC

i hope that helps.
