This falls squarely in the category of "nobody will ever believe it" but I thought I'd post it anyway, on the off chance that somebody else may encounter the same problem.
Here's the situation:
I'm sitting in the motorhome basking in the warm winter sunshine (I know, "oh woe is he"), and I'm working on some BIAB stuff with this set up -
- ASUS EP121 tablet (has 2 USB 2.0 ports and is running Win7 Home) - An ASUS BlueTooth mini keyboard (came with the tablet, is actually branded ASUS but the back says "Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard 6000) - one of the USB ports holds the BIAB 2013 drive - the other USB port holds a 4-port USB 2.0 port-replicator - one of those ports contains the dongle for a run-of-the-mill wireless mouse - another of those ports holds a Sandisk Cruzer 32 GB thumb drive
The problem is with the keyboard. A quick trip to an EP121 forum assured me that I wasn't the only one having problems with it. There were many others who would also lose the "connection" to the tablet.
When mine would stop communicating, I would go through (after considerable mumbling under my breath) any one of a few "remedies" to get it working again, including just putting the tablet into sleep mode, then re-awakening it, which DIDN'T work.
One particular day, after having this happen 2 or 3 times in a one-hour span, I decided to just leave it. I didn't turn anything off, just put the tablet into sleep mode, and walked away.
Several hours later, after I had cooled off, I came back, awakened the tablet, and the keyboard worked just fine!!!
Somewhere in all of the above rigamarole, I found the solution. I can now get the keyboard to talk to the tablet anytime it decides not to. I'll give you 3 guesses to see if you can/could have come up with MY solution.
Here's a couple of hints: - it has nothing to do with any settings on either the tablet or the keyboard - it takes 2 or 3 minutes to complete the task.
I'll post my solution after some of you have had a chance to think about it and post something.
Good luck! LLOYD S

I would guess heat. You are cooling it down somehow in those couple of minutes.

The only things I can think of that take 2 -3 minutes are brewing tea, and heating something in the microwave. Thus, I will guess you nuke the keyboard for 2 - 3 minutes. It will drive out any moisture and make the key contacts more supple. And if you believe that...
