Never Did Get It To Work |
This was disappointing.
I followed the instructions faithfully and could not get this to be seen
by a Windows 10 desktop. I have
attached photos of the screens I got.
Number 3 on the installation instructions said to enter the folder “Bluetooth
Dongle”, there was no such folder. I went
to the “Setup.exe” and 20 minutes later
it finally stopped installing. I
rebooted as requested and then plugged in the adapter(step 5). Windows was supposed
to automatically detect and then install drivers. It did neither. I went to my Bluetooth icon and told it to
turn on. It said “turning on”, I went to lunch and came back and it still said
turning on. Another annoying thing that
is not specific to this product is the tiny cd’s that have the installation
software on them. My computer system has
a CD/DVD drive that is vertically mounted which meant I had to lay it on its side
after multiple aborted attempts to keep the tiny little CD from falling out. Twice it fell out in the machine and that was
a joy getting it back out. For me this
product did not work.
From the vendor:
Add Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR capabilities to your computer
through USB
Mini USB Bluetooth 2.1 Adapter
Class 1 EDR Wireless Network Adapter
Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR compliant
Mini USB Bluetooth wireless adapter with support for
Enhanced Data Rate (data transfer rates up to 3 Mbps)
If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
