USB over wireless

this is a more HW question. I was wondering, is someone aware of a device which enables to connect a USB device to a PC over WiFi?

The idea is to plug USB device into a transmitter and have a receiver at the PC side. The data would be transferred wirelessy.

I have learned that the key word for this type of devices is WUSB. However, I am failing to find a successfully stories behind using some of these, as well as a good device.

Does someone have an experience?

Thank you in advance.

I haven't seen any USB hubs that can transmit over Wi-Fi. But there are several Wireless Hubs available. Like these

They have an adapter you plug into the PC and the hub works just like it would if it were wired.

Why do you need it to transmit over Wi-Fi specifically?
