Bluetooth Keyboard LED light

Sounds like your keyboard sometimes reset itself, maybe you need to replace the battery's on the keyboard.

My bluetooth keyboard light only illuminates upon initial connection establishment. The first time I strike a key following re-boot or sleep, it illuminates but nothing further afterwards. I was puzzled about this myself at first, but my research tells me this is normal operation.

 

The blue light on your physical on-board bluetooth controller should remain illuminated whenever the computer is on.

You are right but I don't know how to make the thread show the Prob Solved icon. Talking with a Dell tech today about other probs and the light will only show momentarily a Bluetooth connection being made if the pc doing a new start or such. I was just expecting the light to show full time (like my W98 W-xp keyboards) if the Locks are ON but thats not its purpose.

Thanks to you all who respond.

When the batteries went dead in my keyboard, I replaced them and now the blue light stays on, but will not connect. The connect to bluetooth reset button has no effect. Anyone have a similar experience?

the problem i had was the keyboard would stop working, i change the bat. many times and then i replaced the keyboard with a normal one, no more problem.

 

i never figured it out

and i have an extra keyboard.   someday if i ever figure it out i may put it back on but for now this one always work for me... maybe they haven't worked out all the bugs in bluetooth????????
