Logitech Unifying Receiver, 2.4 GHz Wireless Technology, USB Plug Compatible with all Logitech Unifying Devices like Wireless Mouse and Keyboard, PC / Mac / Laptop - Black

Lost my receiver for my mouse and keyboard and bought this to replace them. They work, good quality, easy to use, computer saw it and installed the drivers. Works with Logitech software.

I found a new Logitech keyboard at a secondhand store for $3 since it didn't have a receiver. (This keyboard is usually sold in a bundle with a mouse that houses the receiver). I saw that it had the Logitech Unifying symbol on the back, so I thought I'd buy it and give it a shot. I purchased this unifying receiver, plugged it in and it worked great. There's instructions and a website link to download Logitech's unifying receiver software. Worked perfect! Now I have an $80 keyboard for $15 total.

Looking at some of the customers reviews made me worry a bit. But with over two decades in IT, the understanding of how these devices works allowed me to easily set this up.Yes, you need the Unifying software to pair the mouse with the device. This is a one time thing.Once that is done, then off you go.Literally took me 45 seconds to pair and move to another machine.

I thought I had lost my wireless receiver for Logitech M510 mouse, so I ordered a replacement. The M510 is listed as one of the items this receiver is compatible with. The item arrived in remarkable time, less that 24 hours from when I placed the order. I was impressed! Then, it did not work, and I was unimpressed. I thought maybe I had a battery problem, so I opened the battery compartment, and found my missing receiver. The person who had used my computer earlier in the day had helped me pack up after a meeting, and she carefully stored my receiver in my mouse. I normally leave it in the computer. So, my problem was solved, but not by the new receiver. I am not sending it back because I think that is just a waste of money for everyone. But I do not recommend this product.

Works great. Thank you!

You need to download the 'Unifying Software' from Logitech to your computer to re-pair your device to the new dongle. Nowhere in the device's included documentation is this mentioned.If you can do this, it will work great. Hope this saves someone the trouble of fighting Logitech's support awful AI bot and terrible customer support. 4/5 stars for terrible AI customer support.

Set up as a snap and easy to do.

The item is a USB Unifying Bluetooth receiver for any Logitech device that has the Unifying icon (which resembles a 6 point black star in an orange background, although to me it looks like a black sprocket). I bought this item so I could use a Logitech M560 mouse that I had lying around without its dongle. At first, the item was not recognizing the device, but a little research in the Logitech's website for product M560 provided a driver for Windows 11 for the dongle, which worked perfectly. The only issue I have with this specific device is that the black knob is too small for a good grip and so it requires some effort to remove it from the laptop on which I installed it, because it's one of those thin-line laptops that have a jaw (like a mouth) in each USB 3 port which makes plugging in USB devices a pain. But other than that, it was great value for the money.
