Difficult to work October 21, 2005
Dwight N. Nelson (Trinidad & Tobago)
Initially I got the adapter working easily when I hooked it up.
However, I took the adapter out of the usb slot and later reinserted it. That's a big no no. You then have to reinstall the software. Unbelieveable because I thought I had the latest OS updates etc. (I was running Windows XP Pro with SP1 back then)
I had some problems reinstalling and getting the adapter to remain connected to my Nokia 6310i mobile phone. I did some searching online and found an article that pointed me in the right place.
The article said to download some IBM Integrated Bluetooth II Software and install that. I was a bit sceptical but what did I have to lose? I saved a system restore point and did what the article said and it's been working since then.
There's some problem with that software on the CD. The device itself works fine, but the bluetooth software it originally comes with was kind of buggy. A more technical person may not have had the patience to do all that I did to get it working. So I wouldn't recommended it if you're not techy.
 Best Bluetooth Adapter I've used yet! July 30, 2004
SupaDupaFly (Electronics heaven, USA)
This bluetooth adapter was simple to install and gives me great range. I chose the Actiontec brand over other brands because I've used their products in the past and was happy with them, as well as their customer service. I use the adapter with my Bluetooth-enabled Cell phone (Sony Ericsson T610), PDA (Tungsten T3), and Microsoft keyboard, mouse -- and I haven't experienced any problems with it yet!
Quick and easy installation and use. January 30, 2004

Following the instructions, I had this installed in less than ten minutes (Windows XP). It is as easy to use as a hard drive, and I haven't had any problems with it.

You will have big problem installing. I simply returned it.
Horrible January 7, 2004
J. Foulke (Brooklyn, NY United States)
I bought this to connect with my Nokia 3650 phone, but didn't even get to the point of finding out if it worked with the phone because it didn't work on the computer. Everytime I plugged it in it gave me a message about a missing section in the inf. The technical support phone number in the install guide is not their phone number. I went to the website and got the proper tech support number and after hours on the phone the company could not solve the problem. I don't recommend this product at all.
