  • Verify that the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port on your computer.

  • Press the "Connect" button on the underside of the mouse to re-establish the connection.
• Erratic cursor movement:

• Short wireless range:
  • Ensure there are no large metal objects or other electronic devices interfering with the 2.4 GHz signal between the mouse and the USB receiver.
