mx518 disconnects

my mouse is dis-/ reconnecting all the time is there any way to solve the prob except buying a new one?

.. i think a cable might be partially fractured


found a solution i think:

[16:40:50] [eE-traktor] cut the cable few CMs from the mouse, dismantle d mouse, look how was the cable connected, remove it
[16:40:58] [eE-traktor] and connect it the same way to the cable you cutted ;)

(THAT ARE NO PRIV LOGS!!)

Can anyone confirm it?

Dunno, I had the same and I bought new one since im bad at fixing things
mx just sucks so by razeR > no problems
razerS are too small
Parent
ah maybe but perfect for left handers like me :I
Parent
razer has the same fucking problem, probaly alot more than logitech.
Parent
had the same with razer, I bought mx518(although I heard that they're doing the same) and it works fine now. I dont think there's any solution for it except buying a new one
Ask sean, he has a solution.
Probably the one I edited?
Parent
no, 'Sean. He's in #crossfire.

the way i fixed mine was;

I bent the mouse cable around the right side of my mouse, and taped the cable to the side of the mouse. It's not an amazing solution, but it's a good temporary one, and it's working decently for me. - It's better than it disconnecting all the time :)

lol at the pic
return it to the shop and get a new one in exchange!

Parent
3 - 4 CM. from the start of the mouse..

Listen to the bear cavalry

I have the same problem xD
had the same problem with razer... mouse is shit, buy a keyboard!
Had the same with Habu after 14 months. Then I bought mx518 and had the same after 8 months. Now meanwhile waiting for the Copperhead to come to me, I'm using broken Habu since it's still better than broken mx518.
got same problem BUT ONLY IN ET ! (MX518)

can't B the cable, I think !? :/

other solutions then cutting and fixing, coz got no problem in other PRG's :(

thx
I did it like explained above and it works for me now ;)
Parent
