2 RF keyboards conflicting

[mphartzheim]

My roommate and I both have Logitech RF keyboards... different models. Mine is the S510, and I don't know what his is but it's about 4 years old. They're both in near proximety in the same room, and whenever he is typing I cannot type on my keyboard. His text doesn't show up on my screen, but none of my typing will show up on the screen. My keyboard does not affect his tying at all, it's entirely one way.

It's impossible for the receivers to be more than 10ft. apart in this room, but right now they're only about 4ft. apart. Would it solve the problem if they were further away? Or does the actual keyboard need to be further away?

Or on another tangent... could the conflict be in the RF frequency being used? If so, is there any way that it can be changed?

Thanks.

Most are capable of switching channels - look around on the receivers and input devices for little sets of dipswitches. My A4Tech is a very cheap RF set and even it has two channels.

Both are Logitechs, and all they have on them are Connect buttons (on both the receiver and the keyboard). No channels to choose from.

Wow, Anand has made me lazy... two good (possible) solutions right on Logitech's website.

Thanks shawn, I'll try those when I get home tonight.
