Hello all

I just bought two SiliconWave bt1.2 USB Dongles (Anycom and arp datacon).

What's the supportstate of SiliconWave?
Are they more like broadcom or more like csr?

regards
Marco

if it is the ROM version then all of them return the wrong inquiry with RSSI event. I have a kernel workaround for that ready, but it is not public at the moment.

I personally would say something in between. There are problems with the SCO support, but all the rest seems to work fine.

Marcel

Actually I doubt it. However you set the inquiry mode to 1 and check by yourself the size of the returned inquiry result events.

Send them in so they are archived, but I actually have one of these.
