OK just now my laptop fell to the floor (dont ask!) and it neatly landed on the bluetooth transceiver for my keyboard+mouse. Now the mouse+keyboard kinda works on and off if usik-usik the transceiver. Most of the time took 5-10 minutes of usik2 before it works again. I have isolated almost all other possibility and it now boils down to the transceiver.
So the question now is, can I bypass the transceiver and connect directly to the laptop (which has a built in bluetooth)? If can, how?
I'm using Logitech M275 mouse + K345 keyboard combo.

last time i'm working as logitech distro RMA technician, i use to have tons of that lil dongle.. by using unifying software, any logitech peripheral can be connected to this dongle (even its never been connected before)
but then again that was 7-8 years ago, now working in different field
and yeah, its not bluetooth based
best you can hope for is some /ktard who have spoiled logitech mouse/keyboard to donate his working dongle

hes model dunno unifying software mah
actually there's 2 version of that software.. 1 is normal, the other is for unifying
happens once, a customer who bought 200+ m185 mouse, send all of it to a printing company to etch their company logo. that stupid printing company simply take out the dongles and put it in one place, after done printing they return it to the customer.
and that blardy customer ask us to re-pair every single mouse. damn it.

usually BT tech uses propitiatory frequencies so if your logitec one kaput hard luck

no wonder, my workplace using the same Logitech M280 as own personal mouse.
I'm sorry to say that your mouse+keyboard combo is not a unifying device, hence you can't buy a unifying receiver to replace it. If your receiver kong, that means goodbye.

kinda. logitech Unifying technology allows multiple device (logitech only, obviously) to connect to 1 single Unifying dongle.
Logitech items without this Unifying technology cannot connect to Unifying dongle.
However if you can get a working non-Unifying dongle, there's a Logitech software that can help re-pair the device with the dongle.
Meaning if i have two devices (keyboard and mouse), i need two non-unifying dongles?
I think i can live with that.
Currently i managed a workaround by following the video earlier. I took of the housing and straightened a bent part. Seems to work so far, but im not sure if it will still work if i go mobile with the laptop again.
This one? The specs say it is not compatible with unifying receiver. You have to buy a replacement receiver made just for that combo. Not sure if available in MY.

Say, want to ask.
My K400 wireless keyboard after about 7 years, now a bit wonky.
Most of the time it doesnt detect...turn on and off 3 to 4 times only can detect. I have changed a different Unifying receiver, but still the same. So does it means its the keyboard problem? If yes, i have to buy a new K400 again.

if using different dongle still facing same issue, means the keyboard itself is the problem. 7 years quite long for a wireless device, the chip might starts to degrade.

Ic thanks...looks like have to buy a new one..
This K400 is unique product. No other competitors i think. Its robust too. Always dropped on the floor from the sofa. Until one time a key also pop out but can fix back.
