Greetings folks,
I recently purchased an AIW X800 XT, which came with the RW-II.
Initial install, drivers, everything worked like a charm. Desktop mouse pointer, EasyLook/buttons... the remote worked like a champ.
Well, I rebooted today.. and upon hitting buttons on the remote- NOTHING works. The icon is in the systray, remote buttons light up when pressed, etc.etc.. but nothing happens. Even using the thumb-pad on the remote no longer moves the mouse.
Looking over at the little round receiver- I noticed when I press buttons on the remote, the little clouded red LED no longer "blinks" as I press things. I recall in the past, when using the remote- the LED on that unit would blink to indicate it was receiving signal. All devices in the Device Manager are there, working and indicate no problem. It's as if the receiver is just no longer receiving from the remote!
I also noticed when I reboot, the red light on the receiver blinks 3 times. After that, it's on solid no matter what I do with the remote. This leads me to believe that the receiver (.. or remote) just isn't working. Both have been totally pampered and rarely gotten ANY use as it's a new card, only a couple weeks old, and have only used the remote like 4 times total.
Is there some driver/configuration that would cause the receiver to just stop receiving or is it a bad unit? Are these things really this cheap/fragile to just burn-out sitting idle over a week or two? Anyone else have a good experience with the RW-II? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
