First distinguish between local mouse lagging and remote screen feedback delay. The same movement operation can be performed in the local window and cloud desktop.
Understand the essentials
Wireless mice, trackpads, local loads, and networks can all affect feel. Changing the remote configuration is not the only direction.
A practical example
Hypothetical example: when the local cursor also jumps, the input device should be checked first; only when the remote click feedback is slow, the connection should be checked again.
What to check or try
- Switch to simple desktop testing.
- Check local input devices.
- Compare the network.
- Record whether dragging, clicking and scrolling are abnormal respectively.
The trackpad and external mouse can be compared, but battery, connection and local cursor settings are excluded first. If both inputs are normal locally and only the remote feedback is slow, then pay attention to the connection and display. Don't blame the entire link problem on the mouse at hand.
An easy-to-miss detail
Don't end the investigation with the subjective "it seems to be fast", use the same actions to compare.
