What is the capital of Tunisia?

How exactly do you say “a wireless computer mouse” in French?

The problem is that it would be ambiguous. You can’t know which one is wireless: The computer or the mouse ?
In France, if you say « Une souris sans fil », it is clear you are talking about a computer mouse.

EDIT:
About grammar, your sentence is correct. You can both say

les souris d’ordinateur sans fil
les souris sans fil d’ordinateur

The first one sounds more natural, even if as said before, it may be ambiguous.

You could use

Une souris sans fil pour ordinateur

but it’s quite heavy.
In this case “sans fil” can apply to both the mouse or the computer so you have to clear it up by locating the “sans fil” after the mouse.

On the other hand, people will understand because the usual expression is not

ordinateur sans fil

but

ordinateur portable

ou juste

portable
