However the extended inquiry will be only supported by Bluetooth 2.1 (aka Lisbon) devices. You can also check the features with "hciconfig hci0 features" if it tells you it supports inquiry with RSSI. However in case of some Broadcom chips, this doesn't mean anything, because they support it anyway even if the features bit is not set.
