As if it wasn’t bad enough that they want me to use a random internet service to add a keyboard to a usb wifi receiver, they have the balls to put this for Firefox users. I clicked out of pure curiosity, as I’m not even remotely interested in involving a corporate internet service in getting my keyboard connected to my computer. This is the message you get now on Logi Options software if you have a Unifying Receiver: This is the message you get now on Logi Options software if you have a Unifying Receiver

EDIT: some people on the thread have brought up that the error message being displayed for Firefox users is due to the WebUSB API not being implemented by Firefox due to security concerns. This still does not justify having to use a web app to plug peripherals to a PC.

      Yeesh

      So…I guess I will stick to wired peripherals then.

      If I am understanding what this is all about … Then I think, if they had put forth even a tiny bit of effort, they could have come up with a solution that doesn’t require a website for installing.

      Logitech G devices with the Lightspeed dongle still work with no pairing software (the dongle is pre-paired). You’ll need the G software to change things like DPI though.
