Trackpad 2 great but connecting a pain

[geejay9876]

Hi,

extremely happy about by Trackpad 2 but connecting to my MBP 2015 with Mojave is a very unreliable. I have to go through several hoops with the BT and trackpad settings before it connects.

Anyone any hints ?

BTW On my HP Probook h....tosh with El Capitan it connects instantly automatically.

TIA

Do you have USB 3.0 devices connected to the MBP? If so, try repositioning them. USB 3 can cause radio interference that effectively jams the Bluetooth signal.

I suppose, if there is some USB interference then this should be also apparent when using them after connecting? But not so. Once they are connected there are no issues. Most of the time the MBP doesnt see the trackpad at all. Only restarting BT seems to help reliably.
