[Bluez-users] Blootooth 2.0 devices

[Geoff Shang]

Hi,

Just purchasing some USB bluetooth dongles and wondered how well if at all 
BlueTooth 2.0 was supported in the BlueZ stack.  If not, what is the most 
recent revision of the Bluetooth standard that is supported?

I'm currently using two Bluetooth 1.1 CSR-based dongles and want to get a 
higher data rate on my PAN.  Will going up to a 1.2 dongle achieve any 
speed increase or do I need to make the move to a Bluetooth 2 dongle?

Geoff.

2.0 is supported for quite a while now. I use a CSR-based one with
the bluez packages for Debian sarge, which are already somewhat old.

1.2 isn't faster, so I'd recommend buying a 2.0 dongle. See the list
archive for recommended types.
