Replacing Bluetooth With Usb Or Serial

Ok guys here is another beginer question.

Can i replace the bluetooth board with a usb or serial hard wire connection to a laptop?

If so what is the best way to do this and what do I need to order?

I have done some researching but I wanted to get some good advice before I buy.

If EZB has something I would gladly purchase from my Canadian Friends EH:)

Thanks Michael

Hello! This discussion is for the ezb v3, which was Bluetooth. The v4 is wifi and cannot connect USB.

Ps, please do not double post. The other post has been removed.

You sure can:) the instructions are defined in this thread, start at the first page.

Simply remove the Bluetooth adapter from the v3 and attach the USB serial converter rx/tx/gnd to the appropriate connector.

Voila:)
