Bluetooth Mouse lag

Recently bought the Surface Pro 128GB.

Having been annoyed by the temperament of the touchpad, I bought a Microsoft Bluetooth mouse.

What I've found is that, when copying data over a network, the bluetooth mouse begins to lag.

Using the touchpad/pen is unaffected.

Makes me wonder whether the Wireless NIC and Bluetooth Module are using the same bus and/or whether this is a known issue.

    Wow guys, I can feel your pain. I am finding myself using my surface a lot more these days (ZBrush is pretty great on it), and decided to get a wedge mouse - everything fine, then weird lag. Tracked it to large uploads (ZBrush project file on OneDrive!) and found this thread. Unbelievable that no-one would fix this or respond in a year. Easily reproducible, and clearly a major bug. MS - what's up!?

    so can we identify the affected chipset so that we can check if we can expect a solution, soon?

    Thanks for acknowledging the issue, Steven. Please note that it affects Surface Pro 1 customers as well (along with quite a few other computers).

    ...and what's about the non-Surface users seeing the same issues?

    The issue is chipset based, not Microsoft based, and that is why you are seeing this issue with other computer manufacturers as well.  Hopefully they can work with the chipset manufacturer and fix this via a driver update, otherwise it is not fixable.
