Will this wireless keyboard & mouse work for my setup? - Steven M I am looking to buy a wireless keyboard and mouse. Here is the link to the one I want to purchase: http://www.provantage.com/buslink-rf-6572a~7BUSL0J0.htm The setup I want to achieve is run a s-video from where the computer is at to the opposite side of the room to where my big-screen tv is located. Then I would like to use this keyboard and mouse to drive what is on the tv. Though I am going to have my back to the computer, will this keyboard & mouse still work? or must I have the keyboard & mouse pointing to the computer? If you can respond quickly, I would like to place an order if this will work for me tonight. Thanks. - Steven

Best Answer: as long as your within like 10 feet of your computer it will still work. - Dilpickle1

10 ft is way to far for it to work. You might get a range of 4ft if you're lucky. looking at the size of the usb connection on this setup, you'd be lucky to get 3 ft out of it. If you're going to buy online you should go to Ebay and get a high quality Microsoft keyboard and mouse that will get better reception. Kensington is a good brand also. The unit you're looking at seems to be a very cheap quality unit. You can probably buy it for half the price on Ebay. - ouch
