1.Broadband net extreme gigabit ethernet
2.inter r prowireless 2915ABG NETWORK CONNECTION
I have installed the bluetooth driver in IBM T43 Laptop. The device manager is listing the bluetooth and says device is working properly. But when I try to configure the bluetooth, it says no bluetooth device is connected. Connect it and make sure it is turned on.. Pressed Fn+F5 then push "Turn On. No bluetooth device is turned on .
My model is 2668-72U
kINDLY REQUEST YOU TO HELP ME OUT , THANKS IN ADVANCE

Re: t43 bluetooth not working
Take the palmrest off, then remove the wifi-card.
Underneath where the card was, you will find a big Intel chip.
Press on that, trying it in various places, and see if BT now comes on.
If it does, you have the infamous loose Southbridge problem.
Lots of postings in the T4x forum.

Try installing the BlueSoleil BT drivers.
If still no luck, your motherboard is with 99% certainty faulty!
