Couldn't wake sleeping computers

I lost my Logitech diNovo Mini and the H18+ seemed like a good inexpensive replacement. This is my only interface device for my HTPC (TV connected Mac Mini). My computer goes to sleep after an hour of inactivity and any mouse/keyboard activity should wake the computer up automatically. My diNovo mini did this (wireless connection) and wired keyboard/mouse works fine too. However, as soon as the computer goes to sleep mode, the H18+ loses the connection to the dongle! This means I have to physically press the power button on the computer to wake it up! As it is hidden in the closet next to the TV, it is not suitable for the remote control. It broke the deal for me. It's a shame because the keyboard and mouse functions seem to work fantastically when the computer is on. UPDATE: The manufacturer and another buyer told me this shouldn't be a problem. The manufacturer has also honored its 100% money back guarantee. As mentioned, I like everything else about it, provided it can wake up the computer properly. Good design and good customer service - 5 stars.
