When switching devices, does it disconnect from one and reconnect to the other or does it stay connected to each device?

You have to connect the keyboard to your computer using a code; once connected it will remain connected to that device without having to reprogram it. I have had my keyboard lose it's connection once in two years where I have had to re-pair it, but that is all. Whether it can be paired to more than one device at a time I don't know.

I have this between a Mac Mini and PC, the switch over is instant when one of the computers is turned off. I have never tried to toggle between them when they both are running, my HP monitor will not auto stitch between them so I just use one or the other depending on what I want to do.

Once you connect the devices (like you would pair a phone to any blue tooth device) it connects at the time of activation and stays connected. If a phone call comes in it will disable the intercom for phone connection. Once the phone call is over it will automatically reconnect to the intercom. I use this for extreme off road riding to stay connected with my son and listen to my I-phone. works flawless up to this point.

Yeah. I had 3 diffdifferent devices switched to another and it never gives me any trouble.

The switch is equivalent of you unplugging the device from one computer and then plugging it into another computer.From other comments I see it even works if you extend the output with a USB hub.I see no reason why this wouldn't work.

In theory you should be able to do this; however, I'm not having much luck in keeping it stable. I can get the second extender configured and I can log on with my laptop/iPad/iPhone once, but when I disconnect I can't get it to re-connect. I've updated to the latest firmware. I have swapped the roles of the extenders and in a single extender environment they work fine, but when I try to add the second extender I can't get a reliable connection. I'm going to continue to work on this as I'm certain it should work; however, at this time I would have to say it does not work. Update: I got this working. My mistake was trying to name both extenders the same. Once I changed the names to be unique it works great.

yes it does reconnect. Takes a couple seconds to respond, It stays connected via Bluetooth

I only use my laptop. It doesn't seem to reconnect automatically but its as easy as clicking on the button at the top of my computer that makes it reconnect.

I don't have my manual handy but believe the small button on the back it to initiate pairing with your Surface.Not sure what you mean by 'disconnect'. If it is paired with a Surface and you want to pair it to another one, I believe you push this button to start the new pairing sequence.

I'm not sure as I've never tried this but I'd imagine if you went to the bluetooth settings on your first device and selected "forget device" it would allow you to connect to a new device. Sounds like a pain to have to do that though if you're switching back and forth often. If it's anything like a normal bluetooth you would just hold the pairing button down again for 5aeconds to pair to a second device. Good luck.

Hi Jamie,I've paired mine with multiple devices, but each time I turn it on, it grabs the most recently connected device (assuming that device is available). To switch devices, I either turn bluetooth off on the currently connected device and the second device usually grabs the cube fish. Does that answer your question?

In my experience most phones will only connect to 1 bluetooth device at any one time. If you are connected to a set of speakers and try to connect to a second set your phone will connect to the second set but automatically disconnect from the first set.

Theoretically this device supports hot swaps. In practice I find it less than stellar for hot swapping devices. I do device changes with power off. Hope this helps.

No it does not because it is only a switch (hub) to be used to connect other devices.

One of the advantages of this device is that it stays paired to the last device you paired it with and it only takes about three seconds for the devices to pair up when you turn it back on after the initial pairing. That said, it looks like you may only connect one device at a time and while you can switch out and connect various Bluetooth headsets to the device, its only the last device that stays paired. I successfully paired the device individually with a TaoTronics TT-BH03 Bluetooth Stereo Headphone and also with a Avantree Hive-Over the Ear Bluetooth Stereo Headset.

Have currently have mine paired with 3 devices: iPad, iPod and Android phone. John is correct, however. Once you connect with one, it will disconnect with the other. Your pairing will still e there, but you will have to reestablish the connection. I don't know if there is a device out there that will allow you to be connected to multiple devices simultaneously.

It automatically switches when it receives a signal. If you have 2 devices on at the same time, you would need the remote to switch them. Otherwise, you would need to turn one device off, then turn the other one on.
