Re: [Bluez-users] How to configure a 723kbps connection?

[Michel Planques <mplanque@laas.fr>]

Hi Marcel,

l2test is a good tool to generate Bluetooth traffic between 2 linux
stations. You can also use the PAN profile with bnep protocol and a
TCP/UDP traffic generator : I suggest iperf (it works on Linux and
Windows). I followed these two methods and the results were similar.

I had some bad experiences with the packet type choosen by my dongle's
link manager. I had to force the packet type to DH5 reach the maximum bit
rate.
