Change the keyboards batteries they could be running flat. If not clean the keyboard of any gunk if it feels like there is something stuck under the key.

I'm going to add that as it's wireless there is always a chance of interference from other devices in particular Radios, Televisions and Mobile Telephones.

A fresh battery change didn't make any difference at all? I remember having a wireless keyboard and mouse some years ago, at times the keys would become stuck due to flat batteries it was a pain trying to play the Argonath servers like that.

Yes, I putted duracell plus alkaline, I didn't see any difference than before...
It's hard to play on Argonath with this keyboard.
On my desk used to be my mobile phone and under is my keyboard... maybe it's the problem.

In my opinion you should just get a wired keyboard, when you are using your pc you're near it anyways, so why using a wireless keyboard that eat a shitload of batteries all the time.

This. I tried going with a wireless keyboard once, and I ended up smashing it to pieces.

I have an Apple wireless (bluetooth) keyboard and it seems to work very well in general.

If it loses connection or if the connection fluctuates on those rare occasions, I have noticed it sometimes gets a little stuck.

I would check out your wireless/bluetooth connections and ensure that both the computer and keyboard have secured mutual connectivity - you would want the keyboard to be picked up correctly by the computer.
Just check that the keyboard hasn't been connected to any other devices too.

Get a decent one.

I have these new 2.4GHz wireless connection ones.

One little tiny USB plug connects both mouse and keyboard to PC, if battery is dyng etc, it doesn't lock on one key, signal just drops out instead, perfect. I can easily move my keyboard and mouse around and feel no difference in response time compared to wired.

Response time is only like 5ms different, and most screens have far above that anyway :P

If you have an old wired mouse it'll be slower than the new average wireless ones ^^
