If you're locking for a bluetooth USB adapter: I have a 'Bluetooth
5.0' adapter from TP-Link which works with Fedora. I've been able to
use it with a headset and an xbox controller. A smartphone and an IP
phone also show up as devices, but I haven't tried to use them via
bluetooth.
I have only one enabled radio, in a 3d printer, lists all the neighbors
wifi routers it scans for and I assume the neighbors can hear it, but
this things login id does not appear in its scan. Maybe its duff, IDK.
However, a while ago I found that the xbox controller did have
connection issues in that the connection seemed to get interrupted, so
I went back to using an USB cable. I'm pretty sure it's a software
problem because it worked fine at first. I don't know if it's been
fixed since because my workstation only has 4 USB ports of which 3
are occupied and an USB cable extension is plugged into the 4th for
the xbox controller.
How does the watch you got measure blood sugar? Doesn't that require
a blood sample?
That is what the FDA is pushing. This shines a uv led, and claims to be
able to measure by the color of the blood going by. But w/o a bt
connection to the net, it can't even tell the time, its about a month
out of whack.
Thanks hw. Take care and stay well.
