2 wireless keyboards in close proximity - any interference? I was wondering whether the wireless keyboard/mice being used by one person can interfere with the other person's laptop?

My husband and I have a similar work set up in our home. our desks are right next to each other and we both have the wave. There has been no interference adn we have had this set up for over a year.

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.

Yes, at least with my router. I tried moving the transmitter as far as 20 feet away and it was still a problem. It even interfered with my 2.4ghz wireless keyboard.

My wireless mouse is blue-tooth so it depends. if your keyboard is also blue-tooth only one device connected at a time. You can pair it with a large number of devices but only one can be in use at any time

As someone who does own multiple of these mice (desktop, laptop, media center, probably another one for work):1. They'll work fine, and won't interfere. If you have any Logitech wireless keyboards you're using with them, though, I'd suggest pairing the mice with the existing keyboard dongles to minimize the possibility of the 2.4GHz channels getting clogged up with all the communication taking place.2. Yes. You could even use them simultaneously :)

I do not notice any latency now. When I first installed the keyboard and mouse there was too much distance to the usb transceiver. In that case there was latency and sometimes just no response at all. Once I moved them closer together, it has worked fine ever since. It seems to work fine with 2 to 2.5 feet separation but more than that is a problem. Also, the transceiver was kind of buried in the computer case and somewhat shielded by the case.

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

In my experience, a mouse and keyboard will not work together unless they packed/paired together when purchased - every keyboard and mouse (in a package deal) are "linked/paired" at the same frequency with a certain transmitter from the factory and they will have identical numerical codes on the back of each piece which confirms they have matched frequencies by the factory. I have quite a few motherboards and "mice," but they do not work together or with a different transmitter unless each of the two pieces have identical numerical "codes" to the factory preset transmitter.

I use the work station just for my wireless keyboard. The keyboard is pretty long so there isn't really room for the mouse next to it, but there's room for the mouse right in front of it along with a bottle of water or cup of hot chocolate. I realize that wouldn't work with a laptop though. Either way it's tight, but depending on the size of your keyboard, it's possible.

I have a linksys WRT54GL 2.4 router about 4 feet from where the keyboard/mouse live and they don't seem to interfere with each other.

I have never had any interference issue. I had my sons birthday party and had the Sabrent base inside (the two speakers outside in the backyard with batteries and were within 15 to 30ft from the base) my house about 20ft away from my wireless router (using Comcast wireless router) which was playing music from my tablet (using Spotify), had my wife's phone as well as mine connected, a PS3 and some of my nephews iPhones connected. All of these devices were connected at the same time and didn't have any noticeable interference issues for the 4-5 hours that it was in use.

Not with a wireless mouse or keyboard. this unit takes a wired kb und mouse and splits the signal between several pc's. this unit works well for me.

I have and I did. The problem I always ran into was when I tried to connect Bluetooth keyboard and mouse separately. It always caused extreme lag or "ghost typing"...For now this is the best option to have both keyboard and a mouse pad via one Bluetooth connection

yes i always use more than one Bluetooth device in the same room without any kind of interference, but i don´t know if the item is going to have the same behavior with you.Thanks!

We're using 4 in our lab at work. They are ~2-4' apart from each other and have not had any problems. I would suggest that when you do the initial connection that they be isolated from the other setups.Since we have 4 workstations I used a silver Sharpie and wrote 1,2,3,4 on each mouse, keyboard USB dongle so that if someone mixed them up we can get them back to the proper workstation.Also, DON'T LOSE THE USB POD. They cannot be replaced and thus your out $55.Pet Peeve: Why post a response "I'm only using one at home". What's the point?

I've had hit and miss with this. I have a USB wireless set from Logitech as well, but it does not always see them when switching between systems. As Ben put it, I can use it with my Logitech revolution keyboard/mouse combo with no problems on one usb port, but for the headset it doesn't always seem to like it.

No, they will not interfere with each each other. I love this mouse! Fits the hand perfectly! Not to big not to small. I have one for both desktop and laptop.
