I have used a webtv wireless keyboard with my replaytv units since the beginning.

They work great, btw. Excellent for search.


Anyway, I have gotten one into a weird mode. Somehow.

I haven't been able to get it to type normally.

I must have randomly pushed some buttons that set a symbol lock, num lock, or both.


If I type an r instead of an r I get R[ (two characters)

If I type an R instead of an R I get R{ (two characters)

If I type a 4 instead I get _$ (two characters)


symbol lock.

I haven't been able to figure out how to reset it.


Does anyone know? I took the batteries out and held down a key for a couple minutes. No help.


Thanks.

Try CTRL+SHIFT or CTRL+ALT, have you tryed with some fresh batteries, or try clearing the memory by jumping the positve to the negative bay at the oposite end to drain memory.

I have tried those keystrokes, and I did short out the battery compartment. It was brief, but it didn't make any difference.
