Asus Keris | Wired mode: Flawless | Wireless mode: Choppy, maybe polling rate issue

Hi Nate,

Sorry for super late reply, when the forum went on maintenance I sort of moved on for a little bit and I just recently remembered this post.

You're right, the Keris doesn't come with an extender but I'm lucky since my monitor arm has two USB 2.0 extenders that connect to the back of my PC. On average the mouse distance to the dongle is between 9-45 cm (~0.2-1.5 feet) since I play with quite a low sensitivity.



Sadly, doesn't matter how close the mouse is to the dongle the stutter is felt and shows up as polling rate drops in online polling rate checkers.

As an aside.

It is possible to reset the wireless firmware somehow? I ask because whenever I did a factory reset (left|middle|right clicks), wired mode was really stuttery, and it gets fixed when I update the firmware via Armoury Crate (since firmware is reset, Armoury prompts you to update).

This could be absolutely wrong, but my guess is that factory reset does not reset the wireless dongle or whatever it is that I'm not knowledgeable in knowing, which makes it persist through factory resets, and windows clean installs?

I don't know, I'm grasping at straws now

Thank you for the picture.

How close would the wireless dongle be if you connected it directly to a usb port on your pc?
