Bluetooth Disconnects If Left On All Night

Hello all,

I have learned a lot reading everyones posts. Does anyone else have this problem with their bluetooth disconnecting. I have tested this on 3 computers and if left on all night it disconnects and I have to uninstall the bluetooth and reinstall before I can get it to reconnect to the EZ-Borad.

Thank you

Please post the driver and usb adapter brand and model you are using. A link to where you bought it is good. Some Bluetooth adapter s dont work well. It is strange it works for a limited time then stops. Overnight a Bluetooth can disconnect due to inactivity. Thats reasonable but not needing to reinstall drivers.

I bought the bluetooth from Best Buy version 2.0 not sure of the brand name using Windows 7 drivers, i did not have to use 3rd party drivers. I am going test it again tonight with a servo moving to see if this keeps it from disconnecting. Do you have a brand name that maybe better.

You might be right about the inactivity but it seem like it should always be connected even if inactive as long as the PC and ez-board are on. Or it might be all my wireless devices, wifi cameras, wifi, wireless cameras from EZ-Robot?

BTW I just love my EZ-Board DJ did a very nice job!

Thanks for your help jstarne1.

Uninstall the Bluetooth you are using. You need up to date drivers from the manufacturer. Is there a name on your dongle?

Take a couple pics of your adapter we need to figure out what manufacturer to get a driver from.

No name on the dongle. I will stop by best buy and ask. I should have saved the little box. what puzzles me is that on my laptgop with built in bluetooth it does the same thing. So it maybe the inactivity that causes this issue? Again thanks for your help.

Snap a couple pics I have all best buys dongles on a list

I will have to get your some pics tomorrow because I have to take a part my robot to access it. Again thanks for your help. I wish I had the time tonight but it will have to wait.

Cheers!

Alright. If I had to take a wild guess its a io gear Bluetooth because the others actually say the brand name. Your welcome just trying to help you out..
