Laptop advice

[Terry Everall]

A friend has an 8 year old Lenovo laptop ideated 305-151BD model 80 NJ. They wonder if it's easy to connect a separate keypad and mouse (preferably wireless). Any advice would be useful. Thanks

should be plug +play, as long as there are 2 USB ports

I use a wireless mouse on mine

Wireless keyboard and mouse kit not expensive and will come with a wireless adapter that just plugs into a USB port.  Shouldn't need any set up as @7Westfield said .  Something like this

If you're short of USB ports just buy a small USB hub and get 4 ports instead of one

Can you just buy a dongle to match wireless  keyboard and wireless mouse

Any decent (Logitech/HP etc ) mouse or keyboard, will come with the dongle.

 

This should be fine- Wireless keyboard and mouse

 

Though personally don't see any point in a wireless keyboard over a USB item as it will use batteries.

Thanks for the info. I can't see point either !!!!
