Windows Server 2008 and Bluetooth - GSM-Forum

Has anyone got Bluetooth to work with Windows Server 2008?

I am running x64 Enterprise Full Install and can't get my Bluetooth dongle to work.

It does work on Vista Ultimate x64 using the 5.1.0.1100 version.

TIA

I installed Bluesoleil 5.0.5.170, installed the patch. I now have the Hot Sync working but no Internet.

It connects via Comm 4, like it should, but get 0x1212 timeout on the Palm.

The BT driver shows up in the device manager and the Network Connections screen but does not show up in the Network Sharing and Sharing Center.

The connection for the Internet does show the Sharing Option, so I turned it on .

Went to the Hot Sync Manager and made sure it was setup correctly comm 4, etc.

changed nothing on the Palm since it works with the Hot Sync.

One thing though, under the options of the PAN it has a setting for Work Mode and DHCP Server to be set at 192.168.50.*.

I thought the PALM is to be set at 192.168.0.1?

Under Network Connections when I checked it there, it shows 192.168.0.1.

I am better now that Hot Sync works, but wish the lan would work.
