DETERMINE THE VERSION OF THE LINK MANAGER PROTOCOL (LMP)
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.
FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THE BLUETOOTH HARDWARE ATTACHED TO MY COMPUTER
In the Bluetooth Configuration Panel, select the Hardware tab.
INTERNET 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 enable Internet Connection Sharing:
• Disable Sharing for the Ethernet adapter
• Select Control Panel > Network and Dial-up Connections.
• Right-click Local Area Connection, select Properties, and then select the Sharing tab.
• Clear the check box for Enable Internet Connection Sharing for this connection, and then click OK.
• Re-enable Sharing for the Ethernet adapter (repeat Step 1.c.), and select (check) the sharing box.
If you are prompted to select an adapter, select Bluetooth network adapter. (This option is not displayed unless
more than one adapter is available.)
If prompted, restart the computer.
TEST 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.
UNKNOWN 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.
