Hi, I'm trying to setup BNEP network with a gentoo box as as master in NAP mode. The client (dell laptop) connects using internal bluetooth module. Everything looks nice and happy. Laptop connects to my gentoo box, I set up bridge between eth0 and bnep0, dhcp allocates the IP and laptop becomes connected to my lan over bluetooth. Unfortunately after about a minute (and only standard windows-background traffic - roughly about 1KB each way) - the connection stops. I can't ping over it any more, but the bnep0 stays up. The only way to bring it back to shape is to remove the dongle from the usb port (removing the modules from the kernel doesn't seem to help).
The dongle is made by Integrated System Solution Corp, its a KY-BT100 Bluetooth Adapter. Moving the dongle to a different usb port doesn't help. Restarting laptop doesn't help, which suggests that the problem is with the dongle. Any ideas or suggestions what might be causing the problems? regards pshemko -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
