One of our clients decided to purchase about 20 Microsoft Wireless Keyboard/Mice combos, and placed all of them in two large adjecent room. And, you can guess what problems came about. Yep, yer' right. At times, one person will move his mouse, and elsewhere in the office, another person is freaked out as her cursor magically moves about on his/her screen. At this point, all we have done for our users is just try to resynch the poor victims keyboard/mouse to the receiver.

Other than walking around with walkie talkies, one person in front of the victimized PC, and one walking around moving mice till he gets a message that the mouse is moving on the victimized PC, has anyone else had this problem at work and have they figure out an easier method of finding the conficting frequencies/mice/etc....
 
You just can't use that many wireless kb/mouse combos in close quarters. They don't have that many channels I don't believe. The only way around this is to purchase bluetooth devices as they have a special key that is assigned which none of the others will have.

So if they want that many wireless devices close range - bluetooth is the only option. The standard RF stuff isn't going to work so well. That or get wired.
