Hello,

I lost the dongle that was compatible with my ASUS keyboard and mouse (ref U79K) 2.4 G Keyboard.
I found a similar model on an online shopping site for 15 euros.
In your opinion, will this Bluetooth dongle model work with my ASUS keyboard and mouse set? ??

Thank you in advance for your help.

    Good evening,
    Unfortunately, it won't work.
    Explanation:
    The BLUETOOTH dongle you linked is used to connect (for example) your mobile phone to your PC... or to another PC.
    Under no circumstances can it work with your keyboard/mouse set because the frequency has nothing to do with that of the dongle provided with the set.
    Conclusion... either you find the original dongle... or you need to buy a new keyboard/mouse set.
    Have a good evening
