Hi,

We recently installed 12 Microsoft Optical Cordless
Desktop keyboards/mice in a classroom type setting. All
the keyboards work fine. However the mice all seem to
conflict with each other in the sense that one mouse will
communicate with maybe three base ststions at once thereby
moving the pointer on two other computers. This is a
significant problem for us. Has anyone experienced thi
problem and if so what is the fix????

Every cordless kit would use the same frequency so the conflict will always
exist.

Why would you use cordless keyboards/mice in a classroom setting?

The cordless Mouse I have at home allows me to change the channel that it
communicates on. Is this a possibility for your mice? If so, try changing
the channel the Mouse communicates with the base station on. You should be
able to choose between 4 or 5 different channels.
