Bluetooth Updates?

#1 Post by emeraldgirl08 » Thu Mar 19, 2009 9:33 pm

Hi guys! Since my T30 did not come with a built-in BT config I went ahead and ordered a tiny dongle from EBay. It came in today and I promptly plugged it in. I have a BT Phone (doesn't work with my comp), a PDA that I could play around with, and a BT Headset (I plan on using it for Skype and use with my cellphone also). Anyway I was wondering if there any updates I should know about as far as the BT goes. I also plan on using it for wireless stereo transmitting. I know very little when it comes to the bluetooth and read some of the threads here but from what I read barely mentioned my set-up.

Since you got a non-IBM BT dongle, you should load the drivers that came with the dongle, if Windows doesn't 'pick it up' natively.
Or go to the dongle's manufacturer's website and D/L drivers from there.
The IBM/Lenovo drivers are only meant for the internal BT daughter card (CDC) and would not do you any good.
