So heres the deal. Occasionally my keyboard will stop responding. Its a relatively old logitech wireless one. Recently, I found an old sennheiser headset in a box of junk in the basement which blows away my crappy free airline headphones. It uses RF vs the newer bluetooth ones and I was wondering if it could be the cause of my keyboard issues :confused1:
 
That is a possibility, just like if you have a wireless phone over 2.0 GHz near a router, it'll sometimes interfere so bad you'll have to change the channel on the router.

When it stops responding, does the receiver still blink to indicate it's understanding commands?

No it doesnt blink, but I found a channel switch button on the receiver for the headset so I'll try that and see how it goes
Edit: haha, changing the channel fixes the keyboard issue but makes the headset cut in and out xD
guess these two devices just dont mix :p

Have you tried alternating the headset's channel, too?

For instance, if both devices have 6 channels each.
KB: Channel 2
Headset: Channel 5.

Some headsets, as like mine, have this option.
 
OK, according to Logitech this is a familar problem.

Searching Google, the answer was given to connect your wireless k/b and/or mouse into different USB ports.

Or if it's USB, buy a connector, then plug it into your green/purple k/b and/or mouse ports.

OR just contact Logitech support.
 
Anytime buddy, that's why I'm here!
