Yes, but why does it work fine on my desktop then? If that could be affecting it, then can I change the frequencies or is the only way to move it farther from my mouse? They're already a good two feet apart.Are you using a wireless network? If the reciever or router is close to it, it could be interfering with it. The wireless on both work in the same frequency.

Well wireless is weird and most wireless devices including phones and wifi routers operate at the 2.4GHz frequency. Hence interference.
You could try going into your router and changing the channel it transmits on...
Anyway, wireless mice are just plain bad and I recommend you get this mouse. Much less expensive, an additional button, and it's not wireless.

/sigh. When I got my broken mouse I was originally there looking for a wired mouse, but there weren't any that were better than the sh*t that comes with a Dell computer (pretty much, that's what I'm using right now). Damn, a broken $80 mouse (about 2 years old), a broken $100 mouse (bought on Friday), and now I'm about to go order a $40 mouse that will answer all my hopes and dreams...Well wireless is weird and most wireless devices including phones and wifi routers operate at the 2.4GHz frequency.

Eventhough wireless technology has vastly improved since the last time I used a wireless mouse, they still suck and will never be as good or responsive as a normal chorded one.

1) The mouse is a product of Logitech, so, locate the Logitech headquarter corp. thing.
2) Find the person who made that specific mouse.
3) Shove it up his or her ass.
4) Smile.
That's a good use of the ~90 bucks you wasted on that PoS.

Buy a Razer
Negative, the Razer mice in the MX518's price range don't have the features or amount of buttons of the MX518.

Get the logitech g5, it's best gaming mouse right now. I have one for myself and it's pretty damn good. Though you must install software in order to change certain things such as sens levels, etc.

Wireless mices are teh suxor.
I agree with everyone's sentiments about the wired mices. I have to side with raccoon about a g7 over a 518, only because you can add the little weights to it and make it all beefy.
