Hi,
I bought Mavintec's Bluetooth USB Dongle and installed WIDCOMM 1.3.2 software, and the dongle works fine. I then bought Bluetake BT300 Bluetooth access point and connected my cable modem to it. I now can make my desktop connect to the the Bluetooth access point and browse the internet without using anywires. However, I am having the following problems.....appreciate it very much if somebody can help....

1) Because the desktop is used by my wife and kids, when I am finished, I HAVE to disconnect to Bluetooth access point and logoff, before somebody else can login and rec onnect to Bluetoh from their userid before they can browse the net. Is there any way I can set it up to connect to the Bluetooth access point once for everybody?

2) If I switc user in WinXP when the Bluetooh adapter was connected to the access point, I cannot connect to the access point from any other user anymore...it gives an error "error creating a ppp connection....". It disconnects the original user, even if they had not logged off. Even if I switch back to the original user I cannot connect anymore, unless I reboot the machine.

This is very frustrating. Is there any way I can set the access to Bluetooth as part of bootup and once for all the users please?

Thanks,
Sreenath

I'm not sure you can't change this behavior. The Bluetooth configuration is stored in a per-user basis.
