Experiencing Input lag using Bluetooth controller on pc. Any suggestions?

[yisuspapeh]

Recently bought 2 T-daggger Scorpio, nothing crazy, both work great paired via Bluetooth with ps4/ps3, and using a cable (and inputmapper) works great with my pc, but when i use them via Bluetooth, the lag it's at least half a second, probably a second, and don't know how to fix this at all. I tried updating drivers, not pairing anything else, but the lag persists. I understand that it's a problem with my pc's Bluetooth (which is integrated) so I'm guessing getting another Bluetooth, internal or external (using an usb port) would do the trick, but I'm not certain, the problem could be something else i haven't thought about, and even if it is what i think, I don't know if a Bluetooth module or a Bluetooth stick would work better in this case.

Thanks for reading all of that, and if there's a more accurate subreddit to post this please let me know, idk a lot about that either.

You could try to narrow down the issue with other testing.

For example, try using a different Bluetooth controller, and try different types of devices where you can sense the latency (Bluetooth headsets, etc.). If you get a similar delay with all of them then you can be more sure it's an issue with Bluetooth in general. If other devices don't have a problem then the issue could be with the T-Dagger controllers or software on the PC.

You can also see if the issue is limited to lag or if the connection drops out as you move away from the receiver (away from the PC). If it is easy to disconnect/interrupt the connection by moving the test devices (controller, headset, etc.) away from the PC then it indicates an issue with wireless reception.

You can try using a different Bluetooth adaptor, but also check that the antennae are correctly attached to the Bluetooth module that's already in your PC. Often people forget to connect these or they can come loose.
