I bought 4 of these:

The connection button on the reciever and the keypad do not say "connect", they say "reset".

I plugged in two recievers to two different computers, hit each reciever's reset key. With both recievers blinking, I hit the reset key on the keypad. One reciever will connect, but not the other. If I hit reset again and connect the other reciever, then I loose connection with the first one. Also tried hitting the reset button on the keypad and then ...at the same time, hit the reset on both recievers...only one connects. Am I missing something? Right now, I am thinking the damn thing resets itself each time you hit the "reset" button .....cause, thats what reset means ...which is not good :cursing: . What else could I do? I don't see a way to change things in control panel. And, if this doesn't work out, what is a tried and true wireless usb keypad that will diffinently work?
You want an IR keyboard for this. Bluetooth and most newer RF keyboard/mouse use encryption which makes a connection between the two so you can't operate more then one machine with the device. Infra red simply sends out the signal which can operate practically an unlimited number of machines.
