Default Ilok on wireless hub, not sharing, anyone got it working?

I'd like to leave my ilok, and other dongles, running somewhere else in the house when on my laptop via a usb wireless hub. I'm not looking for sharing an ilok between multiple computers in breach of any licensing etc. Anyone recommend a model that works/has drivers on mountain lion?

Is it just that you don't want to carry your iLoks/dongles around with you or what? I gather you have a bunch of them on a hub now, right? Why not just carry that around with you. Besides I'd not trust a wireless hub to keep contact with your laptop. All you need is one glitch and your session grinds to a halt.

Amen to that! Now, if you have more than 1 iLok, you can move all your assets to a single iLok(especially if you have the new iLok 2 that holds 5 times what the older iLok holds). Also, not sure if this has changed in recent times, but disabling wifi has been a recommended tweak to do when running Pro Tools
