I am using Toshiba bluetooth stack, I have tried my bluetooth in USB 3.0 and 2.0. when it's connected the cursor just jumps all over the place. I can't stabilize it. I don't know if it's my WII mote or not. I looked at my wireless sensor bar, all six infrad lights are shining brightly and on.

Can anyone give me some helpful hints here?

It's even worse if I am using Touchmote (to use the cursor with WIndow 8) it's a lot more prevalent.
Is there a window in the room?

Well i am in the den, so there are two windows to the left, but they are covered by blinds right now.

You're likely getting interference from sunlight. It emits quite a bit of IR light, after all, and it can shine through blinds at comparible levels to a couple of little lights very easily. Does this issue occur only when it's day time?

At that time this was posted, it was night out. The timestap is wrong on the forum for me. So it can't be sunlight.

There we go fixed my time zone.
Most of the time, when the cursor is bouncing around all over the place, it's because of another source of infrared light causing interference. The wii thinks that the other thing might be a point of light, and jumps over to where it would be if one of the sensor bar's lights was over there.

Adjust the "IR Sensitivity" slider in the Wiimote configuration window. See if that helps. That's how you fix this on a real wii, after all. Lowering it should help with this.

I honestly am I going to pull my hair out. I can't enjoy any game becuase of this jumpiness. I have no clue what in my room is causing interference especially at night, since there is no sun.
The problem might come from the Bluetooth adapter itself
any bluetooth adapter you recommend then? Because I thought most would be okay.
