You are unnecessarily contaminating the environment consuming Voltaic cells where none is needed (obviously wired keyboards feed through the cable) and broadcasting what you write over the air, including your passwords.Does anyone understand the cause of this problem& how to fix it? Thanks!Very simple: Use a wired keyboard.
<long, sad, sigh>I just got my new Cherry wireless keyboards delivered. And then I read about Mousejack.
The keyboard communications are encrypted, and both mouse and keyboard are rechargeable. But I at least have to check with Cherry support to learn whether or not my new toys are vulnerable. I suspect that they are.
Dangit.Though the keyboard had nice action, and the mouse was at least okay, they did suffer from intermittent loss of communication with the systems we were using them on.
Back to the cheap wired Dell clackity keyboard and the rather nice wired Microsoft comfort mouse.
