You can connect Logitech mouse to GHUB by installing the software and plugging in the mouse for automatic detection. To connect your Logitech mouse to G HUB, install the software first, then connect the mouse using its supported method, wired USB, Lightspeed receiver, or Bluetooth, and G HUB will detect it automatically. If you need the specific steps to connect Logitech m310 wireless mouse before launching the software, that article walks through pairing its nano receiver. The entire process takes only a few minutes, and once paired, you can adjust DPI, remap buttons, and control RGB lighting from one dashboard.
Connect your Logitech mouse to G HUB, what to know before you start
G HUB is built specifically for Logitech G gaming devices launched in 2019 and later. If your mouse is an MX series or another office-focused model, it uses Logi Options+ instead, so G HUB won’t recognize it. For non-G-series users, Logitech’s official setup guide covers the full process of setting up a Logitech mouse, including pairing and troubleshooting. Before you begin, confirm your mouse model is in the G lineup, check the underside label or the product box, so you don’t waste time installing the wrong software.
Step 1: download and install Logitech G HUB
Go to the Logitech G website and download the G HUB installer for Windows or macOS. Run the installer and follow the on-screen prompts; no special settings are required during setup. Once installation finishes, G HUB launches automatically and checks for firmware updates for any connected G devices, this happens in the background the first time you open the app, so let it complete before connecting your mouse.
Step 2: connect your Logitech mouse to the computer
Your connection method depends on the mouse model. Use the appropriate section below, and make sure the mouse is powered on before proceeding.
USB wired connection
- Plug the mouse’s USB cable directly into a USB port on your computer.
- Wait a few seconds for the operating system to recognize the device.
- Proceed to Step 3, no additional pairing is needed for wired mice.
Lightspeed wireless receiver
- Insert the Lightspeed USB receiver into an available port on your computer.
- Turn on the mouse using the power switch located on its underside.
- Wait for the receiver and mouse to sync, this usually takes under five seconds.
Bluetooth connection
- Turn on the mouse and press and hold the Easy-Switch button (often the button with a number or Bluetooth icon) for about 3 seconds until the LED blinks.
- Open your computer’s Bluetooth settings and select the mouse from the list of discoverable devices.
- Click “Pair” or “Connect” to complete the link.
If you’re using a Bluetooth-only mouse or your receiver is lost, the dedicated guide on how to connect Logitech mouse without USB walks through alternative pairing steps for both Windows and macOS.
Step 3: launch G HUB and let it detect your mouse
Open G HUB from your desktop or system tray. If prompted, sign in with your Logitech account, this is optional but syncs your profiles across devices. Accept any firmware update requests; G HUB installs them automatically. Your mouse should appear in the device list at the top of the main screen. If it doesn’t show up, disconnect and reconnect the mouse, then wait a few seconds. For pre-2019 G models, check whether Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) is still installed, it can conflict with G HUB, so uninstall LGS and restart your computer before trying again.
Step 4: customize mouse settings in G HUB
Select your mouse from the device list to open its dashboard. Here you can adjust DPI sensitivity by dragging the slider or entering a specific value, higher DPI means faster cursor movement, lower DPI gives finer control. Under the buttons tab, remap each button to a different function, a macro, or a keystroke. For surface tuning, run the built-in calibration to optimize tracking on your mousepad or desk. The lighting section lets you choose from preset effects or create custom RGB animations. Save your configuration as a profile and assign it to specific games or applications, so your settings switch automatically when you launch them.
Step 5: quick fixes when G HUB won't see your mouse
If G HUB still doesn’t detect your mouse, work through these checks in order:
- For wireless mice, verify the battery isn’t low and the receiver is within a few feet of the mouse, move the receiver closer or plug it into a front USB port.
- For Bluetooth, toggle pairing mode off and on again, then remove the mouse from your OS Bluetooth list and re-pair it.
- Restart your computer and relaunch G HUB, this clears temporary driver glitches.
- If an update is available, install it and restart the app.
- Confirm your mouse is a supported G-series model (2019 or newer). Older G mice may require LGS instead.
- If none of these work, contact Logitech support with your mouse model and operating system version, they can provide a direct fix or replacement if the hardware is faulty.
Next steps for your Logitech gaming mouse
Once your mouse is connected and customized, you can go further with advanced button programming, assigning multi-step macros or launching applications with a single press, and fine-tune the RGB lighting to match your setup. Both are covered in dedicated guides that show how to get the most out of your G HUB configuration, from simple color changes to complex lighting animations. With your mouse fully configured, you’re ready to game with settings that fit your playstyle exactly.
