    In this report im going to change the minds of those disbelievers that DPI , actually works...

    Issues :
    this DPI thing , has been argued for centuries whether it is REAL , or GIMMICKS that were made by gaming mouse manufacturers to sell their mouse
    the thing is that , virtually there are no ways of prove . highest DPI = faster mouse cursor speed , yes you can do that too by setting the cursor speed in windows control panel to the maximum .
    the example above yield the same results , but thats a ROUGH result.

    Reports:
    i happened to stumble across this software name WIRESHARK by chance , i am learning how to do MITM hacking using Ubuntu and i need wireshark to scan all the packets in the network.

    but instead , all the interface that saw is USB ... it was then i found out unintentionally that one of the USB interface is sending packets of data

    curious , i try to find out what is it and .... guess what , it is my razer imperator.

    [​IMG]
    when i move the mouse , wireshark captures all the packets and flagged it as USB interface ... higher DPI means the numbers on the left increase faster.
    and lower DPI , the numbers increase slower ...

    for the real test i will include one video to show the increase rate of data packets using my imperator , settings on 5600 and 800 DPI(coming soon!)

    note that i am running UBUNTU means , i am not using any razer software that some accuse the software to alter the DPI so it looks as the 5600 DPI is pure hardware
