Mouse issues - slow, lag, jerky

Hardware
1

For the last week or so, I have noticed increasing issues with my mouse (wireless Logitech trackball to be more specific). The mouse will suddenly freeze, move very slowly, or jump in unpredictable distances, to the point that it is almost totally unusable. Then it is okay for a few seconds…

*** Figured it out… receiver was plugged into the wrong port… not sure how it worked at all. All working now.

I came to tell you to replace the battery, but you fixed it already hahaha

One question, the receiver is not an USB one?

You can’t plug especially Logitech’s receivers in USB3 (blue) ports, you need to use the left side ones.
If you don’t read the manuals of the hardware you use (and it’s written there) expect some serious beef jerky.
