Mice: Wireless Conflicts?

(1/5) > >>

ozar:
Guys, I've always used wired mice for several different reasons but am now considering trying wireless mice once again.   My question is, would two wireless mice on computers that sit right next to each other suffer from signal conflicts, or does each mouse come set to work on a different frequency so that signal conflicts are unlikely?

Thanks for the help to anyone that can answer.

If they do conflict, it could be hours of fun for the whole family! :D

I use two wireless mice (Microsoft Wireless Optical 3k and Microsoft Wireless Natural Laser 5000) and it doesn't seem to be a problem...

ozar:
Thanks for the replies, guys!

Do you think it works because it's two different models, or do you think it would work just as well if both mouse models were the same?

I've bought wireless mice several times before and never cared for them, so I'm trying to be more careful this time.  :)

zwmalone:
They're both RF and not bluetooth but as to whether they run on different frequencies I have no idea.
