Peer-to-peer networking using USB 3.0

Has anyone tried USB 3.0 based peer-to-peer networking?

1. I tried connecting my PC and laptop via the USB 3.0. Neither of the them were able to detect the other.

2. Check the USB driver update - the check indicates the driver is the latest

3. As per the USB 3.0 host-to-host communication should be supported. I understand that is what is meant by 'crossover connection' in

4. Preferably - Windows 7, Windows embedded related experiment results would be interesting to hear about :)

As you can get from this discussion

technically host-to-host communication is possible BUT:

• nearly no host has the optional components for this

and

• therefore the OS support is scarce.
