I’ve been trying to find out the range for wireless keyboards and mice. I need one that will work over a range of about 2/3 metres. I have looked at loads of models and searched through all the spec but the range never seems to be stated.
Is range pretty much standard throughout? What is the standard range for a bog standard wireless desktop?
Any help appreciated.

I’ve gone for a Logitech Cordless Desktop EX11. Will that do the trick?

www.amazon.com/Logitech-Cordless-Desktop-LX-300/dp/B0002MRN4Wfirst review. i would say he's right about the uncharacteristic part. can't remember what model mine is tho. The problem is with wireless is you never can tell properly till you get it in place. I've noticed height of the reciever compared to the keyboard and mouse can make a difference too. best off buying from somewhere that is easily returnable and just give it a try.

Not spending that much on it!! It’s not that important, if it works it works, if not then shit happens!!
The one I got cost £20 so probably has a range of about 13.8cm!!
