I've decided to turn my house into a bluetooth network.

I've currently got 4 computers, all of which have an MSI USB bluetooth key.

One computer is currently assigned as the house server, and that one handles the internet connection.

Using dial up networking via bluetooth is excellent - I can use the laptop anywhere in the house. I can also simultaneously access the public folders on all the computers in the house.

What I would like to do however it create a proper LAN connection via bluetooth. There is an option to do it, and it apppears to work at first, but then when it gets to Authenticating, after a short time it comes up with a message that no network protocals have been setup.

I've had a look into my network settings, and AFAICC the bluetooth network adaptor is binded in the same way that my Dlink network adaptor is binded.

Anyone got experience in this, or know what the problem could be.
