Introduction
Bluetooth is an open specification for a cutting-edge technology that enables short-range
wireless connections between desktop and laptop computers, personal digital assistants,
cellular phones, printers, scanners, digital cameras and even home appliances — on a
globally available band (2.4GHz) for worldwide compatibility. In a nutshell, Bluetooth
unplugs your digital peripherals and makes cable clutter a thing of the past. Now you can
connect your PDA or PC to Bluetooth™ enabled mobile phone with this Bluetooth™
adapter.
You can access e-mail & Internet no matter where you are with just a little help from your
Bluetooth™ mobile phone.
Plus, when you are back in the office, you can hook yourself up to your office network as
well as communicate with other Bluetooth™-enabled devices.

type on the remote device, synchronization WILL NOT take place for that item.
The data item types which can be synchronized are:
Business cards
Calendar items
Email (with or without attachments-see below)
Notes
Possible synchronization options for each of these data item types include:
Do Not Synchronize-this item type will not be synchronized
34

A4: Paired devices are always displayed in My Bluetooth Places, even if the remote
device is out of range or not powered up.
Verify that the remote member of the pair is within radio range, and powered up, and
then attempt the connection again.
Q5: Cannot discover services on an un-paired remote device
A5: The remote device may not be powered up or may be out of range.
Verify that the remote device is powered up.
Verify that the remote device is in Connectable mode (Bluetooth Configuration
Panel > Accessibility tab).
Perform a Search for Devices to verify that the device is within range.
Q6: Dial-up networking service does not start.
A6: The Dial-up Networking service will not start unless a properly configured modem is
attached to the server.
Verify that the modem is usable as a local device on the computer to which it is
attached. In the Bluetooth Configuration PanelLocal Services tab double-click
the Dial-up Networking serviceClick the down arrow in the Modem field and
select the modem that will be used to dial out, click the OK button to close the
Bluetooth Configuration Panel.
Q7: Determine the Bluetooth device address (BDA) of my hardware device.
A7: In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, on the Hardware tab, in the Devices section,
select the device you want to determine the address of. In the Device Properties
section of the dialog box, the fourth entry, Device Address, is the BDA of the selected
Bluetooth device.
Q8: Determine the version of the host controller interface (HCI)
A8: In the Bluetooth configuration panel, on the hardware tab, in the device properties
Section, the fifth entry provides Bluetooth specification compliance information for the
host controller interface.
The sixth entry contains the specification revision information for the host controller
Interface, if appropriate.
Q9: Determine the version of the link manager protocol (IMP)
A9: In the Bluetooth configuration panel, on the hardware tab, in the device properties
section, the seventh entry provides link manager protocol version number
information.
The eighth entry contains the link manager protocol sub-version number information,
if appropriate.
Q10: How to find information about the Bluetooth hardware attached to my computer?
A10: In the Bluetooth configuration panel, select the hardware tab.
Q11: Internet connection sharing does not work
65
A11: This occurs because Internet connection sharing was enabled when Bluetooth was
installed (this is a Microsoft windows behavior and is considered proper operation).
To resolve the “problem”:
1. Disable sharing for the Ethernet adapter:
(a) Windows control panel > network and dial-up connections
(b) Right-click “local area connection,” select properties, and then select the
Sharing tab.
(c) Clear (uncheck) the box for “enable internet connection sharing for this
“Connection” and click ok.
2. Re-enable sharing for the Ethernet adapter; repeat step 1.c.), and select (check)
the sharing box.
If offered an option to select an adapter, select “Bluetooth network adapter” (this
option will not appear unless more than one adapter is available.) If asked to reboot
the computer, do so.
Q12: Test a network access connection.
A12: If the client is hardwired to the LAN, unplug the hardwired connection to ensure that
the Test checks the wireless connection rather than the hardwired connection.
If the server has access to the Internet, open a browser on the client and connect to
the World Wide Web.
You may also ping the server from the dos prompt.
Q13: Unknown port message when using a Bluetooth serial port.
A13: The “unknown port” error message usually means an attempt was made to connect
a port that was in use. Additional Bluetooth serial ports can be added if they are
required.
Q14: Bluetooth headset doesn’t always function under Win98.
A14: Windows 98 cannot convert audio files with the extension m3u (e.g., myfile.m3u) into
the pulse code modulation (pcm) audio format used by Bluetooth headsets; this is a
limitation of windows 98.
Other versions of windows (2000, me and XP) can translate m3u audio files into the
pcm format.
Possible solutions are:
Upgrade to a newer version of Windows
Use an m3u-to-mp3 conversion utility to convert the file(s) into a format that is
supported by Windows 98. (Conversion utilities are available as freeware or
shareware on the Internet.)
Q15: How to shift the Buletooth driver to the original one in Windows XP sp2. Please
follow below instrcutions:
A15: (1)Click on Start Control Panel Performance and Maintenance System,
choose Hardware and then Device Manager on System Properties. After open
the Device Manager, right click your Buletooth Device, select “Properties”.
66
(2) Select “Driver” on Broadcom USB Bluetooth Device Properties, then click
“Update Driver”.
67
(3) Choose “No, not this time”
(4) Choose “install from a list or specific location”.
68
(5) Choose “Don’t search. I will choose the driver to install”
(6) Click “Finish button to accomplish driver shift.
