Hi all, today I juz bought my first bluetooth(BT) dongle branded D-Link DBT-120.
It looks like this :

And after all setup and config, I started to use it...
Here r some questions, hope tht u can help me, thanks.

1. The BT Dongle has 2 LEDs. One named "PWR" and one is "LNK". When I start to use the bluetooth(not in transfering file mode yet), the "LNK" LED keeps on blinking but the "PWR" LED is lit with a stable light... Is tht normal?

2. When I am transfering files, BOTH the "LNK" and "PWR" LED keep on blinking....Is these normal again?

3. When I stop the Bluetooth device from the programme(named My Bluetooth Places), BOTH the "LNK" and "PWR" are lit stably... Is it OK?

Hope u can give me some guide, thanks again...

If the dongle works and you are able to transfer files without any problems then I would assume that the LEDs are behaving normally. Are you actualy having a problem with it?

@scotsboyuk, I am not sure, because I wouldn't know whether it has problems or not as we can't really MEASURE or CALCULATE the speed with a METER!

Anyone has the same LED condition with me?

@cyberkid

If you are able to establish a connection and transfer files without any problems then I would suggest that your dongle is indeed operating correctly. I don't think you need to worry about the LEDs.

Try to transfer a 1Mbyte file to/from the phone. If it takes about 45 seconds, you have the same performance as most people (i.e. 20-25kBytes/s).

Wht do the "LNK" and "PWR" mean?
"LNK" for Link?
Does it mean tht it is finding some devices to pair/link with? So it must be linking all the time?
And "PWR" would be Power?

Hey, anybody is using this D-Link DBT-120? Give ur words pls... Thx~

@cyberkid

The LED is no doubt flashing to notify you that a link has been established.
I might suggest that the user manual for the dongle might explain all this.

At the risk of repeating myself I am quite certain that your Bluetooth dongle is absolutely fine and is working the way it should be. I am also quite certain that the LEDs should flash the way they are and that there is nothing wrong with them.
