Wireless Keyboards & Mice Work With KVM's?
My experience so far is that they do not. At least not with mine. Is
that so? Thanx Big Fred |

I have experienced this same problem with two Logitech keyboards and one Logitech mouse, all of which work fine when using their receivers connected directly to each machine's USB, but not with my KVM. So I figured that was the nature of things. I guess I need to play around some more to see what I am doing wrong. Thanks Big Fred |

Wireless Keyboards & Mice Work With KVM's?
I use a Microsoft wireless keyboard/mouse combo with a Belkin KVM, but the
wireless receiver is plugged in with the PS2 connectors. My KVM isn't USB, but I would imagine that the problem could be that the receiver(s) you tried need more power than the KVM can deliver or a driver is needed for the receiver to function. -steve Frederick wrote: On Thu, 21 Jul 2011 09:45:40 -0500, Grinder wrote: I'm using a Logitech Cordless EX110 keyboard/mouse combo with a Belkin PS/2-Audio KVM, and it works fine.

Interesting - I just got back to playing with this. I have found that the wireless keyboard works just fine when I plug the its receiver's USB into a rear input on the KVM. Won't work using the KVM's front USB. That's a little odd because the wired keyboard being replaced will work with its USB plugged into the KVM's front or rear. Oh well, I can work with the wireless keyboard connecting with the rear USB on the KVM. No difference to me, really. Thanks for your interests you two. Big Fred |

BTW
How long can I expect the two new AAA batteries I put in the keyboard to last? Any idea? Thanks Big Fred |
