Apple keyboard losing connection

I have 2 Apple keyboards, old model. One at home, and one in office. They intermittently get disconnected. Become completely impossible to reactivate. I have to go to bluetooth Manu and remove the keyboard, and then pair it again. Very annoying. Is this a flaw in BigSur? Anyone knows what to do? I have Apple Mouse setup similarly, one at each place. Works perfectly, so only affects keyboard.


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.5

Well, the issue I believe is either that the keyboard har some kind of Bluetooth issue, but more likely that MacOS has BT-related problems. I encounter strange issues with Airpods frequently, too... Or possibly that MacOS no longer fully support my Magic Keyboard. Referring to the connection support pages is useless, though. I struggle several times per week with this and always have to remove the keyboard from my MBP and then reconnect from scratch...

So, I believe this is a failed implementation of BT in MacOS or (my) Magic Keyboard.
