5.7FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THE BLUETOOTH HARDWARE ATTACHED TO MY COMPUTER

In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, select the Hardware tab.

5.8INTERNET CONNECTION SHARING DOES NOT WORK

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.

5.9TEST A NETWORK ACCESS CONNECTION

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.

5.10UNKNOWN PORT MESSAGE WHEN USING A BLUETOOTH SERIAL PORT

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.

5.11BLUETOOTH HEADSET DOESNT ALWAYS FUNCTION UNDER WIN 98

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.)
