Subject: [asterisk-users] OT - Chan-mobile -Bluetooth dongle on remote
LAN workstation
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2013 08:25:42 +0100
Hello,
On a LAN, is it possible to install a bluetooth dongle on one
workstation (at this time, this workstation OS is not specified) and use
it with chan_mobile ?
I've read some USB over IP (or Ethernet) middleware exist but I'm not
certain I'm looking at the right direction.
Regards

Hi Oliver,
I've been trying to do this for a while.
Been using latest blackberries and oldest nokia, and a laptop with
build-in and also an external BT-dongle.
What i noticed, is that the presence is highly unstable.
Even without walking along (kept the phone 10 cm from the BT-dongle) it
kept bouncing: found-gone-found-gone.... Unworkable.
I wanted not only presence, but speech-patch also via BT.
Idea was, that if co-workers are located at the other end of the world,
they can still be reached on they handy, even when no GSM-roaming is
acceptable (due to costs).

Hi Hans,
As mentioned in my previous post - I've had this working for a number of
years for my personal use. When I would go abroad, I would leave my
cellphone/mobile phone home connected to Asterisk over bluetooth. I
would say that if you're having problems staying connected - it might be
the bluetooth dongle. It seems that the ones with the Cambridge Silicon
chipset work best. In my case, once the phone gets connected, it stays
connected. However, there is a known bug whereby Nokia phones
automatically disconnect from bluetooth at the end of a call. To bypass
this, I reduced the number of seconds to 5 in chan_mobile.conf - so that
Asterisk tries to scan for the phone quick enough after it disconnects.
I've added a note at the bottom of this page a while ago regarding this
issue:

At the time I also got hold of as many phones as possible and tested
compatibility. I've added my results to the same page above.
