Using 2 Wireless Mice
Is it possible to connect (wirelessly) a second wireless mouse to the same USB port and have them both work simultaneously?
Thanks

Yes! But why the same port?? Just plug the second mouse into another port and they'll both work. Why 2 mice by the way?? You could pickup a "USB Data Hub Splitter"

@orealius yes you can use 2 mice with 1 USB port if they are made by Logitech. I have 2 MX Anywhere and a MX Master mouse and can use all 3 at the same time with 1 Unifying receiver and they can also be paired with 3 different PC's and the USB dongle is called a Unifying receiver which pairs with the mouse (mice) or keyboard.Last edited by IownAmoneyPit; 31 Dec 2020 at 16:54.

@Lance1 orealius stated in post #1 wanting to use more than 1 mouse with a single USB port as the PC they are using may only have one USB port left available and I know the Logitech brand can accomplish what the poster wants, however I agree there may be other brands that accomplish the same thing and await posts from other members who use other brands.

Thanks folks....I'm out of USB ports and hence the question. Not sure I want to use a hub for a wireless mouse! Meanwhile, the mouse I am using clearly says "Logitech" on the top. Yet, when I look it up on the device manager it says: "HID Compliant Mouse" manufactured by Microsoft. Confusing!

You are seeing the generic Microsoft mouse devices. The only thing I have found related to Logitech in Device Manager is Logitech USB Input Device. That is not the mouse itself but the USB dongle.
Even under Setting > Devices > Mouse > Additional mouse options you only see the Microsoft generic mouse settings
Most Logitech mice today can use the Logitech Options software. You can download it from Logitech.
You can add (pair) a Logitech mouse by
Here is the Logitech Advanced Unifying App with a 2nd mouse paired. I can use both mice at the same time.
