wireless keyboard on HD300's?

Anyone tried a wireless keyboard on an HD300 and had success? I plugged in a wired keyboard today (an older Apple keyboard) and the keyboard lights worked ok (caps-lock,etc) but no typing would go in when trying to specify a server name to browse in local mode (not as an extender).. No keyboard entry..

I've got a wireless keyboard at work (Logitech MK320 that I picked up for $20 during the holidays) and may try that..

Thanks Bob.. I had done a search but didn't see that thread.. Anyway, this morning I tried plugging in the wireless (RF) keyboard dongle and re-connected power to the HD300 and it came up just fine and typing worked as expected. Thanks!

To be perfectly honest I didn't search either. I just looked at "Similar Threads" at the bottom of the page below your post and looked through them for candidates:

Glad you got it working I was thinking about doing something like this myself with my HD200 so was hoping it would work for you. You got the Logitech MK320 working correct? May have to get one to try on my HD200s.

Yup.. I used it a little last night to load up some videos from a share on another system I've got.. Worked like a charm..I guess I got a good deal for $20 as the current price is about $35-$40.. Shoulda bought another one for using with the other HD300 I've got.. Oh well..
