Why when i connect my external trackpad my macbook sees it as a mouse??

I have MacBook Pro M3Pro

last version Sonoma (14.7.1)


I also did a refund and tried a new trackpad, still the same…

I tried connecting it to my girlfriend's laptop(Macbook Pro M2) it also connects like a mouse…


Because of this I can only use it as a mouse, there is no trackpad functionality...


Please help 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

MacBook Pro 14″
