What keyboard and mice are the most compatible with this switch? I had a nice Alienware keyboard and mouse and they did not work well at all.

I can only tell you that my logitech gaming mouse didn't work well with it - the software on my PC's got confused if I switched screens after reboot. I really liked the switcher, but had to live with basic mouse and keyboard functionality rather than the advanced stuff.

Hi- I am using a run-of-the-mill Microsoft keyboard and trackball mouse. Both are working well with the KVM switch.

I have Logitech M570 wireless mouse and Logitech MK700/710 wireless keyboard. They work great.

Yes I had the same problem with my steelseries K/B, The only 100% compatible k/b are a standard 101 key with no special functions, IOGEAR tech help is worse than useless very dissapointing for an industry leader like ATEN. I got mine to work with limited functionality by only plugging in the k/b and putting the mouse on the k/b's USB port.

Not with mine. It has one USB plugin for both the keyboard and mouse and it wouldn't recognize the mouse. I'm disappointed. I'd look elsewhere.

I have a Logitech Performance MX and it works perfectly. Logitech has some really good software to setup the mouse etc.

I wish I could help you with an answer, but, I have never tried a mouse with this keyboard. I hope someone will be able to answer this for you.

I don't think that would work. The mouse and keyboard plug in through USB ports into the KVM device that go back and forth to be used between all the devices connected. Several times I've attempted to use my laptop to control the keyboard and mouse functions on the other system (when I thought my keyboard and/or mouse had died with random power outages) and it never worked. I think you need something connected via USB into those ports.

Mouse will work without the keyboard. I use the mouse alone often and it works great.

This keyboard will only work with the wireless mouse it came from. It's not a good keyboard btw. I wouldn't recommend it.

There isn't a mouse with this keyboard, but it says 2.4GHZ. I'd bet it's proprietary.

Yes. I currently use the wireless mouse. Be aware that there are only 2 standard USB ports and running both the mouse and keyboard at the same time may use both slots. Probably not an issue, but just pointing it out.

look up lenovo SK-8861 for the keyboard and mouse as they are a set and work off the same receiver you should be able to find pictures. my opinion is they perform well and the mouse is fantastic however the keyboard is a non standard layout and while it performs well I have trouble using it.

Hi David, I have a USB mouse attached to mine and it works just fine.I see no reason why a keyboard would not work as well.Hope this helps.Mike

I just ordered the N5902, and I was watching reviews that when paired to the xbox the mouse does not work. You have to use the directional pad arrows to navigate the menus. Typing in search or chat or url works just like any other ordinary keyboard. Hope that helps if you havent purchased one already. I think it's a neat and compact design so i want to give it a try. The keyboard reminds me of the old Blackberry BOLD phone keyboards (Which i liked)

Yes, I initially used it with both a wireless keyboard and mouse but now only the keyboard is wireless. Problem was the mouse, not the KVM

any mouse or trackball that is marked as unifying. if you need more answer than that I suggest you check http://logitech.com/unifying they have a whole list of keyboards and mice compatible with that receiverother than that list currently there is 1 trackball M570 and 1 touch pad T650 for this receiver. they are cheaper to purchase here on amazon for most of what logitech has to offer

I agree with the other answers. The only issue I had with the switch is that special hardware like a gaming mouse or gaming keyboard will not work correctly unless you plug them into the back ports. If you have a regular mouse

Yes , I use a mouse instead of the keyboard just like a PC or Laptop. Just plug and play !!!

I use it with a Logitech unifying receiver for my mouse (Logitech Anywhere MX), but I also have a Logitech Illuminated Keyboard that is wired and plugged in as well. I haven't had any issues using the mouse, but I can't speak to using a unifying receiver for both the keyboard and mouse.
