Re: [Bluez-users] Test Mode

[Manjunath Prabhu <manjunath.mp@gmail.com>]

Hi peter,
Thanks for the reply. What scenario should i be looking for inorder to
set up these tests. Can I conduct the tests using my dongle as a slave
and a  CATC or Frontline or a Mobiwave BT trainer/protocol analyser as
the Master.  Will I be able to modify the baseband to suite my needs? 
Do they have a provision for fusing new codes (something like a
flash)??
I think i better write to the sales person from respective organisations....

regards,
manjunath
