Wireless Keyboard

[Ellay]

Any type of Wireless Keyboard will work, but for display purposes and own personal preference we'll go with Logitech. (If you have a Wireless setup and it works flawlessly, please post below with Brand and Model)

From experience the accuracy is what you are looking for when sending a signal to multiple receivers. Also instead of buying a bunch of wireless keyboards, it may be easier to contact the manufacturer and request just receivers to go along with your 1 keyboard and mouse package.

The trick here is to have the exact same model for each PC, and synchronize 1 keyboard to all receivers. This can be done with a mouse as well.

Learning Curve - Easy - Medium

Works flawlessly with logitech LX300 Wireless desktops.

I've used the same set up for dual-boxing while playing WoW. The snag I ran into was some type of latency.

I would start both characters (mages) off at pt A (right on top of one another). I had their primary spells/abilities mapped to the same spots/keys.
I hit 1... both would cast frost or fire spell.
I hit 2... both would cast spell ...

Anyway, the issue came into play when I try to move. They begin running in diff directions.
I guess this problem is solved via a follow macro and an assist macro?

If I have player b on follow, however, then my issue is that when I begin to cast... he's not in range, as he's behind player a (leader).

This hardware solution certainly works, but it raised those issues for me.

Follow/assist macros are the best solution, possibly the only viable one. Just means you run a little closer to the mob before you start casting, or, take range enhancing talents on the follower, and not the main character to make up the distance

I talked with Labtec about this, they don't sell the receivers separately, and you cannot multicast with two receivers.

Anyone in touch with Logitec able to ask them?

I picked up 2 cheap sets (KB/mouse) for around £8 each ($15?), turns out they work with a slightly older logitech receiver as well, meaning I have 3. No idea if you can get them sepperately though, i'd guess not, unless you buy a set and contact Logitech telling them you broke it and wish to get a sepperate one

Does it work out for you? Keyboard input broadcasting to both receivers? Any noticable lag between presses, etc? Got two wireless Logitech mice already, I think I'll find out what I can hack up soon (ie after the /follow bug is fixed, and the WoW basic pricecut reaches Europe)

I bought 3 of the logitech EX110 for about 39 each.

They work great. No issues here. I use a different keyboard for my main and autofollow for the rest of the toons.

Then the logitech keyboard controls all including main. So I just press 2 and they all use their DD spell. It works well so far.

I just use the main keyboard for moving the main around and targetting.

Yeah when I just dual-boxed with it there were no problems at all

Awesome. Sounds like that'll be my affordable hardware route

Thank you and overkil2
