you can't use the MS bluetooth adapter as it doesn't support the SERIAL PORT Profile..
Moreover, the P800's Bluetooth Serial Port support is buggy right now.. |

Well... Got it working now... (hacked a driver for some other BT device)
Only setback is that the mouse dosn't work now...
But I can live with that....

No, you don't need the BT Serial port to connect. Just plug in your BT dongle into your PC and active the P800's BT. Pair up this two device. The click on the CONNECT BT TO SERIAL PORT. A message will comes up but just ignore it (software bug). A moment later, the P800 icon (desktip) will change to green color with two arrows. Now click on the MROUTER icon in the tray. If you're not sure which BT port to connect to, just click on all of them and one of them will connect thro. After that, the small P800 sync icon will appear as before (like when you connect with the docking station). |
