Bluetooth Dongle recommendations?

Ianxxx · #1 08-29-2009, 09:46 AM

My bluetooth dongle stoped working from about 10.5.6 onwards, I got it to work by going back to an older bluetooth kext. This isn't possible now as I'm using snow leopard.
Does anyone have a bluetooth dongle that's behaving itself and working properly in either 10.5.8 or Snow.
If so what make/model is it.

Unfortunatly I'm in the uk and the shipping would be 5x price of dongle.
I'm really looking for a make model that works, but thanks anyway

I'm using MSI USB adapter (I believe its MSI Starkey) and it works right OOB. I am currently running 10.5.8.

Do you know what chipset it uses?

I'm sure someone must have a bluetooth dongle that works?

The only one I can find is linksys USBBT100 as listed on HCL 10.6.1 - OSx86
