Windows 10: Sharing USB port over LAN

In our medical organization we bought these graphical tablets for our doctors. They will be used to sign documents of our patients. One tablet for each cabinet.

Problem is, there are 2 PCs. We connect the tablet to one PC and would like other PC to have access to it as well. I could use Remote Desktop or TeamViewer, but it's too complex for doctors, I need simpler approach.

Drivers and possible incompatibility aside, is it possible to directly share USB port on W10?

• If so, was it detected?
• Did you receive any error messages?

To address this issue, we suggest that you follow the troubleshooting steps shared by Praveen Venogupal on this

Let us know how it goes.

So you want something that you plug into your LAN port and it gives you USB ports or something you plug into a USB port and gives you a LAN port? If you need USB ports, why not put a PCI/PCI-E USB card in the computer?
