I have found impossible to use Bluetooth with my Debian 11 on my :

Though it is an old laptop, I was confident that Debian 11 would be
able to bring her to its past glory, and it did! with the exception of
the the Bluetooth capability.
I 'apt install firmware-atheros', but the result were most
unappreciated since the package, though it did make the Bluetooth
devices work, it created a problem with the WiFi; the internet was
super, mega slow.
I still hope to make the Bluetooth work and thus I am posting this
email in the hope that someone here also had the same experience with
an Acer Aspire and was able to solve it.
Please note, I am by no means an expert on Linux, I have always use
M$, but due to my disability I am now unable to purchase a new laptop
or the new WinOS. So, go easy on me folks for I am a new comer to the
*nix world.
Thanks in advance.
We need more information about your system first.
Install necessary utilities first, if they are not already installed:
$ sudo apt install pciutils usbutils inxi
Send the output from commands below in your next email:
$ lspci -nn -k
$ lsusb --tree -v
$ inxi -E -za
$ journalctl -b --no-pager | grep -iE "wireless|bluetooth|firmware"
You can use pastebin-like service[1] to send long console outputs.
What devices are you trying to connect via bluetooth?
