I use an ethernet connection on my PC. My PC has no wifi capabilities.
WHAT I EXPECT: When I insert the USB Bluetooth device I should simply be
able to connect my earphones and use them without crackling sounds
and/or messages that don't mean anything to me.
WHAT HAPPENED IN STEAD:
I purchased a (No Name) USB bluetooth 5.0 device. When I inserted the
device the OS immediately picked it up. Before I connected any devices, mobile
phone or earphones, I got the following message immediately:
“Connection Failed. Activation of network connection failed.” When I
switched on my bluetooth earphones, Jabra, after the usual pairing they
connected and I could listen to music using VLC, however, I got a crackling
noise every now and then which sometimes coincided with a display of
“Connection Failed. Activation of network connection failed.” The sound quality
was also not consistent, so, I returned the USB device assuming that it was
faulty.
I subsequently purchased a WINX 5.1 USB Bluetooth device. When I insert the
device the OS immediately picks it up. Before I connect any devices, mobile
phone or earphones, I get the following immediately:
“Connection Failed. Activation of network connection failed.” When I switch
on my bluetooth earphones , Jabra, after the usual pairing they connect and I
can listen to music using VLC or Youtube using firefox. Every now and then
there is a crackling sound which sometimes coincides with a display of
“Connection Failed. Activation of network connection failed.” The music quality
sound is good and is only affected by the crackling sound.
It seems to me that the OS is trying to establish some connection, but to
what ?
