Hi! I'm an italian user of your library BlueCove!

can you suggest me some device compatible with the library? (i use xp
sp2) I need to buy an access point to use my application realized with
BlueCove but i don't know which choose!
Till now i used a billionton bluetooth adapter (http://allbt.land.ru/
bill.jpg) and all went well. Now i need to extend capabilities of my
application and i don't know which access point fit the application..
Sorry if i'm bothering you, but before to find the correct bluetooth
adapter i bought 5 of these and i'd like not to repeat this experience
with the access point :D

thanks anyway!

Does this helps? http://bluecove.wiki.sourceforge.net/ms-usb-dongles
If not what do you need exactly?

Also since you have 5 adapters there is chance that one of then
WIDCOMM. Look here http://code.google.com/p/bluecove/wiki/stacks

cool thanks!

but i need an access point not an adapter :9

i was thinking about this
http://www.blueunplugged.com/p.aspx?p=101190
because it seem that does not need external driver so i hope it use
one of the windows driver (that listed here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841803)
that have to work with bluecove because the problem is that bluecove
use the windows bluetooth stack. i'm right!

This is access point not an adapter!  It has special software running
on that device to support PAN.
I know zip about D-Link hardware. I know that some Linksys devices can
run Linux. On Linux you probably get a better chance to run your own
application.

As to BlueCove it will run on Windows with supported BT stacks.
BlueCove will connect to any Bluetooth RFCOMM server or client.  E.g.
works as SPP Serial Port Profile

The PAN Profile is deferent based on Generic Access Profile (GAP).
PAN is intended to allow the use of BNEP(Bluetooth Network
Encapsulation Protocol ) on Layer 3 protocols for transport over a
Bluetooth wireless technology link.

mmm, i've searched every one on google.. maybe i have a problem with
the word "access point", i'm not a guru of the net :9
now imagine i don't know almost everything..
what i need is to cover a large zone (a fair) with bluetooth net,
discovering devices and sending them a file.. I can do it with a
computer and the right adapter but how can i manage the distance? i
mean, how i send file to more than 100 meters? for obviuos problems i
can't use a computer every 100 meter :)
what you would have done in this situation?

Ps: i've tried the alpha that there's at http://bluecove.sourceforge.net/bluecove-tester/
of bluecove and i have seen your name on the installer!! :) so it's
you! cool!
can i know when you will release the new version? i've tested it and
works with my widcomm hardware, this is cool, means that i can use
widcomm hardware, but without the software it's a bit difficult :))

very tnx!

I don't know how to cover big territory with Bluetooth. Your best option is
to have Devices every 100 meters.  I suggest you to look as Linksys or other
open hardware with Bluetooth.

v2.0.0 to be Released 2007-07-xx  or when all bugs are fixed and tested.

Yea! the problem is they i don't know how to do this using cheaper
device. Now i can do it using as device a pc and a bluetooth adapter,
but as i said i can't use a pc every 100 meter, and so i'm trying the
way of using access point but i don't know what to buy and how manage
the situation (how to set up a scatternet? how to make principal
device (the pc with the java program running on it) communicate with
the other device (access point) and tell them what to do?)

tnx for the precious information! :)
