[nRF51822] It is difficult to pair nRFready keyboard with 2.4G dongle.

Keyboard source: Desktop 2 v1.0.5 Dongle source: 1. Desktop 2 v1.0.5 dongle hex; 2. Desktop 1.2.2.293 dongle hex

I found it is very defficult to pair the keyboard with 2.4G dongle. Press pairing button thousand times. Also, Try power off and then on thousand times. Then, FINALLY it can work on Desktop 2 v1.0.5 dongle. But, never succeed on Desktop 1.2.2.293 dongle. Instead, it's very easy to connect this keyboard to BTLE. Did you realize this problem? Thanks.

  • Hi,

    we have also observed similar behavior with windows before. When removing and re-plugging the USB dongle into the same USB port, the keyboard/mouse doesn't appear to work properly. If a different USB port is used instead, or the PC is restarted, or the relevant entry from Device Manager is deleted prior to re-plugging, it works as normal.

    Using a USB analyzer we have observed that both pairing and data transmission works fine after re-plugging the dongle, but windows seems to ignore the received data.
